    Stainless jewelery goes great with everything.

    Why would anyone spend money on bling for a company truck? I'd rather toss money into a fire.

    To have pride and sense of ownership. Two things the world is quickly starting to lose. That is why 95% of the trucks on the roads look like trash.

    You and I definitely see the opposite here. In my mind, its a company truck. I'll keep it clean and make sure it stays in good shape. That's the end of it for me. If the company wants chrome on their trucks they'd have bought them that way IMO.

    I had full front caps and when running heavy in hot temps I had a slight hub oil trail. These allow the front hubs to breathe and have caused no oil trails. Hub oil is easier to check with the open caps. 40681913-DCB4-4A71-8EBA-047CC0D54F3A.png BC5F7262-CC95-4BBD-B818-F05CE53D796E.png

    Will the center caps for the front fit over the grease hub?

    Yes. They are domed for both looks and to clear the end caps.
