did you do put abunch of smaller ones together? or did you not put doublesided tape on the back of the cradles and it spun around on the rim?

yes i did that on mine for a while the sensors kinda read and program themselves ford told me its about 500 for them to put new ones on cuz "u cant move or reuse your stock ones you just wasted sensors becouse you took them away from the vehice" guy was a idiot and he lost his job over it haha

not entirely sure what you're saying there michael...
i just don't like the light on my dash flashing constantly... i went to ford, talked to service and parts, parts told me the part number i need is "TPMS-3" and TPMS-6 (6 is the bands, 3 is the sensors) you DON'T want to know the prices each...
i can totally read the pressure without the system, but why make more effort for my self, when i have a system built in?\
as for programing them, the computer on the truck looks for 4 sensors, and pairs it automaticly, when it stops reading the 4 that it was reading, it looks for 4 new ones... so essentially, if i buy a set, and put them on my new rims, it will automatically pair them all to my ecu/ecu what ever
so now the question is, who has the tpms-3's and who wants to sell them, and how much?

thats basiclly all the bands are in the kit one big *** hose clamp about 23" long it comes with new cradles with doublesided tape on them
did you do put abunch of smaller ones together? or did you not put doublesided tape on the back of the cradles and it spun around on the rim?

you should be able to replace the kind that are banded (like the blue ones silverfox posted) with the kind that fit in the valvestem (like the first img on the first page)
correct me if I'm wrong but I believe i'm not.

I'm pretty sure this is true also, depending on what brand they are. I know the Dorman replacements are that style.
#23
jp, i'll have to confirm for sure that the valve stem ones are interchangeable with the band style, i would hate to get them and find out they don't fit...

soooooooooo ahhhhhhhhhhhh yea lol the small hose clamp part would have worked i think it was the taped parts that fail did you not have your stock cradels?
