    For those of us who use snows on steelies during the colder winter months, or even those who (if we are able to find some) want to cover that rusty rusty wheel hub hole or keep rust off of their axle nuts - I ask ye (and will do some measurements):. Is anyone aware of gen1/2 dustcaps?
    Or hole measurements (to compare against when i measure mine)? Oem or aftermarket, it would be a nice thing to get our aging platforms hands on.

    Example of a dustcap pic attached.

    I know for our wheels the hub bore is 67.1mm. That's my contribution

    Probably depends on the steelie that you have.

    Dustcap goes inside of hub hole, so its its more the ID of the hub opening.
