Ok Oppo [beep], what are those hoses for snaking from the hub through the rim of this trailer tire?

Ah yes, Adler Tubes. Mainly for allowing you to fill up the first tire and a second tire behind it at the same time, and also lets me make things up on the internet and lie to you.

External brake lines.

CB might not be far off... They do look like valve stem extensions, but I’m not sure what’s happening once they reach the hub.  

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > boredalways 01/11/2019 at 15:18

ATIS

Automatic tire inflation systems (ATIS) use air pressure from the braking system to supply air to the tires, mainly on trailer tires, which are traditionally the most poorly maintained tires in any fleet.

These are called HBH, which stands for Hub-Through Hose.

The popular thinking is that o ne can never have enough hoses, at least one in every zip codes ...

(honestly, I don’t know)

I want the wheelnut indicators for my RV trailer.. sadly the only place I’ve found them sells them bulk by the 100s, I need 20.

Thank you. I was having a hard time figuring out how the air gets to those hoses, but you gave me the right search terms to find this :
