Wheels, disconnecting CTIS

[alex7296]

When you disconnect the CTIS lines to use non CTIS rims what is the best way to do it. Remove the lines from the hub assembly or from the rim. If you remove the lines from the rim do you leave them coiled in the center caps?

If you are using a seperate wheel / tire assembly to install to your truck. Get a plug, I believe its a 1/4" pipe thread and can be found at any hardware store for the hub. Then leave the CTIS on the wheels you are taking off and install the new ones. If you don't use the plug you will get stuff in the air lines causing you problems later. Just remember to install some thread sealer / tape to the plug prior to instilation.
