Hi I have a sillcock valve stem that is beat up and leaks. The whole system is inside a wall in a finished basement but I was able to remove the stem from outside and needPlumbing4.jpgPlumbing5.jpgPlumbing6.jpgPlumbing3.jpgPlumbing7.jpgPlumbing8.jpg to replace it. The stem itself is just over 9.5 inches long and I'm not sure of the manufacturer but have pictures of everything.
 
Just replace with a frost proof, anti-siphon sillcock, available at Amazon or many hardware stores where freezing is an issue. I live in So Cal and guarantee that our box box store has never seen them.
 
I think that is a B&K Mueller frostproof sillcock.

The guts have more than one style over the years.

Bring those pictures on your phone, plus the old stem you pulled out, to a plumbing supply house.

They will know what new stem you need.
