stolen...not that bad

I parked my truck & trailer near the highway to take the Nova out on a cruise the other day. When I got back, the front hubcaps were taken off the truck . Could have been a lot worse I suppose. Anyway I am looking for the front hubcaps for a 1999 F-350 dually, 4WD. The Ford part number is F81A-1A096-1A. If anyone has a set or even one, that they would be willing to sell, please give me a shout?

AGREE! The legal system doesn't scare those with nothing to lose. The threat of pain does though.

Neal, although it sux, you can probably buy your hub caps back at the closest hub cap reseller

Sorry to hear that Neal but you sure do have a great attitude about the whole thing. It certainly could have been worse. Wish I could help you out on the parts.

Hopefully they didn't scratch your wheels when they yanked them!

Are the dually caps different than single wheel trucks??

I have a set of 4 caps from an excursion. I can try and get you pictures. I have no use for them so they'd be free for the taking.


Ok, here's a link to a set on ebay, they look just like these, from an limited excursion.
03-05 FORD EXCURSION LIMITED EDITION HUB CAP CENTER 4x4: eBay Motors (item 180507364014 end time Jul-12-10 17:26:17 PDT)

Adam, I don't think they will work . They need to be (Type 2, Front 4WD marked as part 6) plain round ones with the hole in the center to allow locking the hubs. Thanks for the generous offer!

All 4 of my hub caps are gone. I guess someone needed them more than me but i don't have a dually either.

It's amazing how people just want even a piece of our amazing trucks. Jealousy is an ugly bieng. Ha ha sorry about your luck Neal. I will keep my eyes and ears open for you and Jim. Just the front ones or all of them?
