Howdy Folks,

Does anyone have a set of front hub bearing caps, they are willing to part with? Mine are MIA.

Cheers, Jim

Inner or outer? I know the backs have both, not sure about the front.

FYI, The rears are not the same as the fronts, they are slightly taller.

Perhaps he does.

I was kinda hoping for a less formal transaction. Like someone with a few spares or parting out a coach somewhere....

Early in the development of the GMC, the design used 5 bolt hubs from an Olds Toronado or a Cadillac Eldorado. What are the chances that the dust covers are the same?

Interesting enough, I thought the same thing. I have a 68 Toro that I have been slowly restoring. It had drum brakes up front, so I converted to 69 Disc brake knuckles and hubs...covers are either missing from those or they did not offer them for that year....still searching...
