I got the 1958 out of the garage yesterday.   Changed spark plug, started her up and cleaned her good for the 2015 show hauling season!

My red Nestle creamer caps are still going strong after three years!

I hand out 25 to 50 sets of these every year at shows and swap meets to willing takers!   It is a great conversation ice breaker -as if I need one!

 

My wife and I are addicted to the Hazelnut Nestle Creamer and I hate to throw these away!    The cap has an inner ring of plastic  that is a little wider than the Wheel Horse wheel hubs but I use a thin packing foam to fill the gap.    A thin strip of packing foam cut one inch wide and eight to ten inches long.   Wrap the foam inside the inner ring then install the cap with a twist on the hub.  The foam, grease fitting and tightened twist keeps the cap on the hub.   My RJ had then on for 2 and a half years until we had to take them off to fit  two RJ's nest to each other on a U Haul trailer we took the the Big Wheel Horse Show in Pennsylvania last June!

 

They look nice and do the job.    As one old guy said at a show -you can even open the cap Lane and grease them !

 

 

If I am at a show or swap meet make sure to ask me for a free set!
