how to replace Leshiy stem brass housing
I know edgunwest has leshiy stem for sale, but I have not found stem brass housing for sale some where. also how to replace it?
I watched ED’s video that says don’t shoot leshiy under 50 bar. otherwise it could break the valve. I’m wondering what damage it could be, stem broken or brass housing damage?

We’re in a small world. Thank you for those pics.
Leshiy hammer spring is very strong. If firing under 50 bar, it could damage the valve housing or break the valve. I’m wondering what tool Ed use to install the housing.
You have posted two pictures and both of them were taken by me. That is funny.
Anyhow, you still need a torx wrench to hammer it in the valve stem canal. Then you can try to rotate the housing. It will damage your socket but that may be your last hope to remove that pesky housing. It is glued and it sits really hard in there.
There two different housing. I have the second one, gen 1.

Torx Wrench.
Thanks. Is there a special tool to remove the valve housing?
Brass housing damage can occur as the valve stem will be fully knocked in and the hammer stops by hitting the brass then.
If you want to remove the housing you need to hammer a torx wrench in the valve stem canal and then try to rotate it. It will damage the housing but if it is glued, like from the factory, you should treat it like a single-use unit.

Housing installation is easy. You can use a tool with a cross-like tip. However, the removal is an entirely different story because it is glued. This is why you need a torx wrench to have a lot of torque.
