Tubeless valve stems for backhoe?

[GManBart]

I'm trying to help my neighbor who isn't very Internet savvy, and think I have the answer, but figured asking can't hurt. He bought new tubeless tires for the front of his JCB 214S backhoe, but he's not sure what stem type is required (it had tubes before). I grabbed el cheapo micrometer and measured the opening in the wheel right around .625". As best I can tell that's a standard truck tire stem. Am I missing anything?

Most metal stems come with two different rubber bushings. the one in the picture is air/water. So they can handle fluid. They do make inflation easier to snap a tire onto the bead when you have the correct fittings.
