This is the one I use.  Purchased from Pegasus Auto Racing, current price is $109.99.  You'll still need a source of nitrogen, pressure regulator, and a supply line.  The valve on the right end screws onto the valve stem, then the tee handle screws in to compress the schrader valve.  Gauge shows the pressure in the strut as long as the tee handle is screwed in.

Aircraft Spruce (and others) sell valves with a sealing seat better designed for the higher (300 PSI) pressure. I've used the ACS valve with success; not sure how good the "standard auto" valves would hold up, but if it leaks, you could be in for a delayed trip, or even a bad day.

Aren't they standard schrader valves?

I have nitrogen and gauges. I would like to get a setup for filling the struts and looking for recommendations.
