I am confused by the comments about tire rotation. I understand what tire rotation is but there are three different styles of wheels on my RV (most Rv's). Front, Rear outside and Rear inside. If you were to rotate tires properly you would have to take the unit to a tire shop and have them remove the tires from the rims and move them to another location/rim. (unless you were just swapping left to right and right to left). The inside rear wheels would always be inside wheels so the permanent style chuck should always be where you want it. I have researched the flexible style chuck extensions and on the internet there are several comments about them failing. If they fail you have a flat! Recommendations for reliability seems to be solid stainless steel extensions supported by a rubber grommet. I personally do not want to trust my RV to an imported flexible hose that can crack and cause me to loose tire pressure. Two local tire shops tell me that the stainless steel extensions have caused NO issues.
