Nice wheels! I agree the closed cap looks better.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I'd go with the closed cap also. Your truck should be able to carry a extra screwdriver in the tool box without it bogging down. You have a great build going on there. I like those big boy wheels and tires.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I really like those wheels a lot! I almost put them on one of my projects before I sold it.

Well, since you brought it up, we decided to jump back into the bedsides a bit. My son is sanding the old, weathered, finish off the bedsides before fogging them with a bit of black paint, partially sanding that down, staining them, and then we'll coat them with a few coats of urethane. Pics don't show the urethane yet..

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
While he was working on those, I cut off the old bed rack gussets and welded in some new ones...

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I was thinking the same thing, that's one tool he's getting his money out of. Looks good and just think how many options you will have on where to place your tie downs.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Working some more on the bed...dropped a couple receiver mounts vertically through the back of the bed in the corners. These will be the anchors for a gin pole set-up.

Welded in another receiver mount at the front of the bed for a cradle winch set-up my boy found a deal on.
