What hubcaps are these? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

SPUdMurphy · 03-25-2014, 09:27 PM

Hey guys,

These are the hubcaps on my truck. ITs in being repaired right now, and they need to replace one hubcap and trim ring. They don't know what specific year these come off.

Anyone know for sure?

Cheers,

Ryan

It's funny how terminology changes over the years. When I was young those caps on the actual hub were hub caps, and what you have were wheel covers. lol

My mailman put a set of these hubcaps on his US Mail truck. I've been wanting to nab a shot of it. He said they're off his '67 Chevelle

Actually,wheel covers are what covers the wheel and these cover the hub,which is why they've always been called hubcaps. What you show is a spindle cap because that's all it covers of the hub. I've also heard them called bearing caps.

On tractors and such they call them dust caps

Down here in AlerBammer we call those grease caps!

SPUdMurphy · 03-25-2014, 11:58 PM

jeez these things are expensive eh? My bodyshop needs to get one to replace the damaged one on my truck from the accident

**special-K** · 03-26-2014, 09:37 AM

Grease capped in,dust capped out,spindle and bearings capped from the elements,and dog pee capped out...although I've never heard of them called dog pee caps.

Elefuntman · 03-26-2014, 10:45 AM

Same ones I have, off my 67 Camaro. (sorry I can't figure out how to zoom in on the wheel!)

**special-K** · 03-26-2014, 04:59 PM

Do you plan to lower your truck?

Elefuntman · 03-26-2014, 05:30 PM

well, just from the rack! Figured out how to make pic bigger!

Good to hear. I reckon it will ride and handle much better. But,fuel mileage will drop drastically
