Due to leak/failure problems with the original valvestems and the need for an extension, the Army is currently buying an improved HEMTT valvestem that is longer and allows you to air up the wheel from either side. Now I haven't personally encountered any problems with the old style, but I do like the extension idea. I have purchased a few to try them out and will be offering them with wheels I sell. They also come with valve-core removal tools, something handy to have when installing or breaking down the wheels! Here are some pics for comparison. New style on top, old style on bottom.

I've bought a lot of different valve stems from this company, and will continue to do so. I'm still looking for a compatible large-bore turret valve that is double-ended like the M939A2 wheels.....
