Dog dish caps

I have a 72 GMC 3/4 ton 4x4 with the Dana 44 "big hub" front axles. Do the dog dish center caps exist for these 16" wheels? Because I'm not having any luck finding them. I've found 3/4 ton 12" centers on Ebay but the center hole is to small.

Re: Dog dish caps

Yes,all the 69-75 K/20 hubcaps are the same,so they all fit the hub. I have only seen 76-91 caps with the smaller holes.

Re: Dog dish caps

I'm not sure what picture you mean,but here's my '72 GMC with the OEM caps. See how they flair out to cover more hub? Just like the later K/30 caps. Ok,I found the picture of the yellow truck I think you're talking about:

Thanks! That was taken about an hour west of home in West Virginia. I had just bought it and driven it cross-country from Modesto,CA. I decided to stop for some refreshments at the Golden Horseshoe,a little ole dance studio where you can pay to watch
