F250 hubcaps

So correct me.. I think hubcaps were not on the 64 F250 even the camper, special edition etc. I have two hubcaps on the front that don't look original and the rear axle sticks through the wheels enough that any hubcaps would probably have to have a center hole. I searched for something that looks correct I also searched for the answer online. Does anyone have a 64 F250 with hubcaps that I could get a picture of? I can post pictures of the wheels and the two front caps if that helps.

All 1961-1966 F100/250 2 wheel drive trucks received 4 hubcaps. For 1961-1962 only painted. For 1963-1966 F250 either painted or optional stainless steel. The 4 wheel drive trucks only got rear caps since the front hubs stick out too far plus if you have locking hubs they need to be exposed. This is a factory photo of a 1966 F250 2WD but the 1964 F250 2WD would have had the same basic look to the wheels and caps.



Here's info from the 1964 Ford Salesmans Facts Book for the F250 2 wheel drive trucks.

Painted


Or the Optional Stainless (Bright-Metal as they call them)


The F250/350 hubcaps are bigger diameter as well as deeper than the ones for the F100.

All 1961-1966 F250's - whether 2 or 4 wheel drive - had the Dana 60 rear axle with the same stickout through the center of the wheel. Here's a picture of my 1966 F250 4WD showing the rear caps installed. The correct wheels and caps will fit and cover the hub end.



Same wheels but without the rear caps installed. You can see the Dana 60 hub sticking out of the rear wheel.

Thank you everyone. I can rest easy knowing that I don't have to find a pair to match the front. I'll be shopping for the correct ones now.
here's what's on mine and apparently someone just shoved two on that they had.


Front. Wrong. Maybe from Rolls Royce.

Rear.

Your rear tire has some dry rot cracking visible. If you are going to drive regularly and especially in rainy conditions, it might be worth investing in some new tires. Traction of hard old tires goes down dramatically. Just the other day I watched an old Mercedes with old tires get on the freeway just ahead of me in the rain, changing lanes to the second lane over he then lost control and spun back in front of me and hit a Toyota MR2 coming on the freeway behind him. Hate to see an old truck get into an avoidable accident....

You've got the good original 2-piece wheels with the inward pointing nubs to hold the original Type 1 caps like in all of the other pictures we've posted so you are set there!

Here is my 64 F250. I picked up this camper last week and needed better traction to get to where it was stored, so I mounted up a pair of my original style one piece wheels with some new tires to go get it.... I have another 4 wheels and caps to mount soon so I can take off the Dodge wheels and International caps that are on the front now! Ha.
