Front Wheel cap?




I have these rims, but when i got my new BFGs installed, they didnt put the passenger-side cap that covers part of the hub on good enough and it fell off somewhere between my house an the 10 miles of roads between the tire store. Does anyone know of the part # for these and the # for the rims, I plan on painting my rims black one day (you can see how bad they look, thats the worst one though) and would like to get a new cap for it? If somebody has one and an extra rim, I will buy it from them!

wheel cap

it looks just like the caps that come with the standard add setup, only yours has been trimmed out to allow the manual hub face to show through. you could probably find another cap and use a dremel to remove the centre portion.

thats something ive been toying with since i put my manual hubs on, now ill have to get busy and do it!!

Really you think my truck had a manual hub conversion??? I really would like to get a stock replacement if not...because these wheels actually look pretty good. Unlike some of the others I have seen around!

We have a T100 that came with those little center cap things made to fit around the manual hubs. Or maybe it came on the 87 4Runner that had Auto hubs... I can't remember. But it's a factory thing, I have a couple of them on the 87 right now with manual hubs. Pretty useless little things.

Haha, yeah they are useless, but I think it would look a lot better with them than without!

My 87 4wd came with same wheels and caps, but they're put away in storage so I can't check part#'s. Try ebay.

What would these wheels be considered? Are they the optional alloys?

I'd go talk to the tire store manager. they should pay for it because they failed to properly secure it.

Well the thing is, it was a while ago, and I didnt care at first, but I think it just looks better with them, You know?? I mean, it was loose to begin with, I just think it lived its life as long as it could...hahaha!!! I am trying to replace somethings on the truck, cause I plan on restoring the whole truck to new, once I graduate UTI (I am going to put a write up on here when I do it!). Then the things like SAS, 1uz swap, etc are going to happen once the truck is restored!!
