Colby Valve Emergency Replacement Review

Go out wheeling with your buddies enough and someone is bound to snap a valve stem. What do you do when that happens? Scott Carline, owner of Axleboy Off-Road demonstrates just how quick and easy it is to replace a busted valve stem using the Colby Emergency Valve Stem replacement system. This requires NO TOOLS and can be done in approximately 5 minutes. Pretty sweet, right? Just plug it in, tighten the thumb screw, air up and you're ready to keep wheeling for the day. It's that easy.

Well now I know how you keep ripping valve stems off! 😂

[@jkustockaphobia2421]

You should grab the Colby valve with the pliers and try to snap it off just to show how much stronger it is I’d like to see that before I buy a set please

[@waynekosolofski3592]

Considering they are for an emergency repair, who gives a shit how much stronger they are??

[@Banditt42]

They are what $20? Don't be so frigging cheap

[@REVNUMANEWBERN]

LOL , he doesn't have to do that >>> IF > LOOK

[@Freestyleny]

nice review thanks i was wondering how to properly install these. I hear they can be used long term also

[@AxleboyOffroad]

@matgemini Colby offers a few different options on their replacement valves. They do have long term replacements, but the ones in the video would be for a short term emergency trail fix.

Can you do another video showing us the Permanent Colby valve stem?

[@AxleboyOffroad]

+matgemini It's almost the exact same process (insert stem and tighten nut to expand the seal). The only difference is that the permanent valve stem replacements use a more durable brass spacer and hex nut in place of the wingnut assembly. With that being said, you'll need a 1/2" socket wrench for proper installation of the permanent stems.

Can you use this as a RoadSide Emergency roadside fix for most cars?

[@scottc3777]

Yes

[@jafiwam]

Does part of the old valve fall into the tire (to rattle around)? Are these things compatible with TPMS (pressure sensors)?

[@AxleboyOffroad]

Yes, if you have TPMS in your Jeep, that portion would fall into the tire, until you are in a position to dismount the tire from the wheel. These replacement valve stems are an "emergency" fix, designed for quick installation, to get you rolling down the trail/road again. The Colby Valves are a great product, but in our experience, they are not compatible with most TPMS.

[@teresapeabody2746]

They won't rattle much when you hit the highway speed.

[@carpenterfamily6198]

I am going to ask a stupid question - can this be done on a dually ? It’s hard to access the stems as they are between the wheels & and there’s very little room to work. I ask because it is a ‘ bear ‘ to remove that wheel from my box truck, which I’d have to do to get good access to the stem. Anyone actually done this ? XL Emergency Valve

[@jddickens7086]

Are these one time use or are they reusable

[@tede.9848]

Reusable

[@analazcano6475]

Wish theyvhad SOMETHING that was not temporary

[@AxleboyOffroad]

Wish granted. Check out the Ultimate Valve System by Colby Valve (in the blue box). www.colbyvalve.com/collections/colby-valves/products/ultimate-valve-system

Why dose nobody know about these?!?!?!

[@co4x4]

360p we meet again

[@carlosdonestevez7532]

I can see how this would be useful for beadlock rims but other than that it's pretty stupid even the guy in the video looks like he thinks it's stupid. It's a solution to a made up problem
