I bought replacements for mine at the local hardware store.

Took all the silver paint off of my center caps and used some nice stainless button head cap screws. Looks alot better than stock. Got them at Ace Hardware.

I would think you could get thoes from LMC truck but im not 100% shure on that.

woody96 · 04-20-2005, 07:23 AM

I am interested too...what size screw and length? I need something that'll work that is not self-tapping-----the holes are tapped.......5/16 x 3/4 maybe?? Anybody.....?

BobbyK · 04-20-2005, 04:38 PM

The head on the screw takes a 1/2" socket.
The cap is 3/8"ths thick so you get about 1/4" to 5/16ths of the thread going into the rim.

woody96 · 04-20-2005, 04:42 PM

So it appears to be 15/16" long...how large is the diameter of the body of the screw? 5/16"?? Or some other diameter?

BobbyK · 04-20-2005, 04:48 PM

screw diameter is 1/4".
