I'm having the ramp truck front disc brakes installed and have been thinking about front wheel covers for it. I have these for it as of now. What have you guy's done in the past to cover the front hubs of your C-20 and 30's? I ordered the lug nuts to install the covers with. I may paint the plastic lug covers silver. The lugs are late model ones that are 9/16" threads.
Lets see some pictures of what you used and info on how you attached them.

These are the wheels and caps that came on mine, late model 3/4 ton stock I guess? Looks very similar to yours. Going to change them out with the second pic though to go more period correct. I think they both look nice, too bad you have to change out the wheel studs/lug nuts though.

I like the wheel cap but I don't think my wheels would look right with it. I'm hoping more guy's post so I can see what is out there for this kind of mod. I hate having the hub exposed.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
