Help Needed.-

[Sea Rider]

I'm finishing my new Rib trailer, would like to add metal dust cap as in pic to protect wheel bearings from the elements.



The hub is 60 milimeters across in straight line, that's 2.35 inches if not mistaken. Can you guys find me one to match, name brand, part number to look and buy from Amazon along with other stuff.Thanks in advance.

what brand of hubs?

Scott, impossible to know, are used auto parts from scrap yards, what else do you need to know if that helps. Would prefer not to remove the hub, bearings as were greased with special bearing grease. Thanks.

not knowing what they came from will be a challenge

here is a list by size https://www.jegs.com/pt/Wheel+Bearing+Dust+Cap

some early VW's used 60mm dust caps.

Found Fulton's 2.333" nice ones as per your recommendation in Amazon, well priced at $ 8.85 each.




The round model is the only available, hope there's enough internal space to cover bearing cap and shaft secure pin.

Thanks Dingbat & Scott as well, highly appreciated.

Looks like our host, iBoats, has them, too, and they have a price match guarantee!

EDIT: Looks like iBoats may be out of stock, though... might be worth a call to see when they'll have them.
