Neat Chrome Wheel Covers

Recommended Posts

Lane Ranger

I have been buying auto dust covers for our 1054's and I figured out they would also work on the B-80's front wheels.

This information may assist othe Red Square membes with finding a reasonably priced alternative to wheel caps and hub caps.

On the 1054's they go on the bearing wheel from the inside demensions.

On the B-80 they go on the outside just like the original plastic wheel cap/cover.

I have founf that the 1.798 sized cover works great.

I only had to grind down the weld bead on one wheel of the B-80 (the other went on fine) to have a new set of wheel caps.

I have been buying a set of chrome cap/dust covers for less than $4.00 a pair.

Here is a photo of my B-80 cap:

Here is a close up:

This photo shows a 1054 wheel with a regualr cap - but the chrome cap works fine on it:
