I believe the 'Zone' or any other autoparts chain carries them in the misc parts section. Look for Motormites (13977?), 'bout 3 bucks each. BTW, on 1/2-ton light-duty rotors, the caps taper from ~2.1" down to ~2.05".

good stuff. so if i go in and give them the 2.1 and 2.05 measurments they should be able to direct me towards the cap i need?

If you have 1.25" rotors, go to NAPA and tell them you need part number 730-2438. That is the part number for the grease caps on my 73 2wd...and I purchased them summer 2006 from my local NAPA. This could be the same for 2" rotors as well, just not positive.

This site has never let me down! I needed this measurement and don't have my truck. The dealer couldn't even tell me what it was.

Nice work!
