Can anyone comment on this? Does anyone know which year/style Stewart is referring to?
Also, those that have the MM hubs, will there be a fitment issue with my OEM center cap?

Greetings all........
Got the MM hubs installed over the weekend.....No issues other than they do sit 3/4" shorter inside the center cap.
What model year center caps will work with the shorter hubs? I've seen several different diameters for the superduty's. Are ours about 8.25"?
I really don't want to mod mine and would rather get ones that fit.
Thanks..........

I know that if you run the steel wheels (Christina has the chrome clad ones) the stock center caps fit the aftermarket manual hubs perfectly, those rims are thinner than the alloys so that is what makes the difference. They both use the same standard center caps.

Not had good luck with the Warn Premiums, had a set only last a couple years on the dually. 4 of my 5 have standard Warns and one has mile marker. The F250 has had the standard warns from 150-342K miles they work like new. As far as factory center caps working with them only the dually has factory wheels and the caps worked with both the warn premium and standard.

I have the factory ltd alloys.....I've read many of the old posts regarding the fix for this, but they are so old, most of the links are broken. Surely there are center caps from other superdutys that will fit these wheels........

If the selector gets sticky or hard to rotate a bit of maintenance is required but with some fresh lubricant they are as good as new.
