Alloy wheel hubcaps for locking hub
So I put some alloy wheels from a 4runner of the same year on my 1994 pickup. I tracked down a set of rear hub covers for the back the ride. But was there ever a cover that went over the front hubs ? On the previous steel wheel (see bed of the truck) there was a cover/sleeve that went around the locking hub. This same sleeve best I can tell does not work with these wheels. So for this era wheel was there a hub cover that accounted for the hubs up front ? I put up a few pictures I found in the net but do not see this option anywhere. (I have received my rear hub covers yet so i don’t know if the center can be removed to account for this if I bought two more )

I think you're looking for something like this:

Does your Toyota have Aisian manual hubs? The one in the red truck doesn't look Aisin. Besides that there are rims like those with different offset, so probably there are a few versions of that hub cover also.

I do have the factory Aisian Hubs. They got silver paint on them from the last owner spraying them silver. (notice the wheels in the bed of the truck had the same sad paint job). I decided to replace with the factory alloys from the time period with the 8 offset. I was just not sure if they had a cover that went with them. Thanks ! Im pretty sure this is what I am looking for !

Has there been any reports of running with this setup. I wouldn’t think with 30s that the offset would make much difference. But I’m getting a shawl rub somewhere. Not sure where though.
