Maybe not letters. Kind of looks like jewels in a crown, and you've got it upside down.


Numberdummy will know.

No letters on these caps and there are two different versions.

1967/69 F250 2WD & 4WD (rear only) & F350 "innie" or 1967/77 F250 2WD & 4WD (rear only) & F350 "outie."

Innie = so called because the hubcap snaps over tabs located on the inside of the wheels center section.

Outie = so called because the hubcap snaps over tabs located on the outside of the wheels center section.

TYPE 4 = Pic from 1964/72 truck catalog.

Awww, come on Bill, it's not upside down, you just gotta rotate the monitor

Besides, Sean needs to keep up the reputation of posting sideways or not straight photos

Thanks Dummy! I was worried those mumbled crown/letters spelled DODGE....


I keep telling the guy at Napa, it's a '65 2wd F250. He's getting to know me and my brake project.


I refuse to go to the bargain auto stores and talk with a kid who can't fathom 1965 - wha? they had cars then??


Que bonita!

I'm a consistent Rockauto customer. No need to interface with a pimply face.


Was just shopping for clutch parts, comparing prices to Amazon. Rockauto site makes it really easy to find part numbers, whether you buy there or not.

Looks like something you would see on a mid to late 60's Fairlane.

Be sure to blow out those brake lines before hooking them to those nice new cylinders (and pumping all that crap into them)....
