I know a guy who had them made at a NAPA store that does brake lines, hoses and stuff to order. Mine are still serviceable, but if you find the right company, they can make just about any line or hose you would want.

Minnhawk do you mean the rubber lip about 6 in diameter? The one that goes inside the air hub at the end of the axil? If so try Rpd Shaver in AZ :)

I guess I thought he meant the rubber hose which connects the hub to the air stem from the inner tube. I think you are talking about the rubber diapram inside the hub, but now that I read the original post again, I wonder if he is talking about the valves under the seat in the DUKW which control the individual tire air lines. Does anyone know what we are talking about? I, as usual, am confused.

sorry for the confusion, I meant the rubber that goes on the inside of the inflation valves under the passender seat.
