Re: Hubcap fit
I don't think so. Pretty sure those are for 15" wheels. Plus I don't think they'll fit over a "Floating Axle" Hub on the rear.

Re: Hubcap fit
3/4 ton didn't have wheel covers. I agree that the pictured covers are 15" 1/2 ton caps.

Re: Hubcap fit
Post a pic of your wheels, that will tell us which style hubcaps you can use.

Re: Hubcap fit
I dunno if you saved money. Those small caps seem to be very rare and expensive when you find a nice set.

Re: Hubcap fit
69-75 style in chrome or stainless. There were painted as well, which ran later. Then there are 76-91 hubcaps. There were also wheelcovers GM trucks beginning in '78 I believe. There are a couple styles of those for 16" wheels. The 76-91s will be your easiest and cheaper option

Re: Hubcap fit
So I bought a set of those hubcaps, they fit on the front fine, but they didn't fit the rear due to the rear hubs, so I made them fit by cutting out the centers..Ha, so sue me..
Are there caps that fit over the rear Center hub like this??

Re: Hubcap fit
more than one way to skin a cat
![]() but I'm curious, if they fit 8 lug wheels, why not over rear hubs ![]()

Re: Hubcap fit
The rear hubs are shorter on the 14 bolt rearends that those hubcaps were designed to clear.

Re: Hubcap fit
I think the 76-91 hubcaps fit 14-bolt and HO52 but not Dana60. I have run them on HO52s before
The 14-bolt full-floater and HO52 are very similar with 'somewhat' interchanging parts. *You can use a 14-bolt differential in an HO52 if you use the 14-bolt axles shafts, different splines. The 14-bolt shafts are about 3/4" longer and need to be cut. *You can put 14-bolt brakes on an HO52, axle flange-out/complete So you can 'create' an HO52 with 3.73s or 3.42s. And then your hubcaps will fit ![]()

and I thought both of the caps PepperTreeGarage posted were the same fitment ![]() didn't the caps on that longhorn go up into the squares a few years? guess they had a lot of extra space.. so after test fitting both of mine, crisis averted, they fit! thank goodness, hate to have to toss a factory no-spin 4.10 ![]() I was planning to pick up a couple of sets of beaters of that later style but guess I'll pass based on what I learned here.. thanks all! ![]() ![]()
