mile marker locking hubs
 
I just replaced my org. locking hubs with Mile Marker Hubs. On my 2000 F250 SD. Now my Hubcaps are an inch to long. The mile marker hubs set back inside the hubcap. This is not good. All kinds of drit and stuff will get traped in there. Anyone have a suggestions. Thanks

Warn locking hubs
 
I have the same problem. I just bought Warn locking hubs and the stock center cap is short just like you described. I was wondering if you ever found nething to fix the problem. I found some center caps that might work but everytime I try to get any info on them, nobody can tell me nething.

NO. I quit looking. I was told the newer ones will fit the front but not the back. When I went to get them the guy told me they would not work cuz they are held on by a spring. Not the lug nuts like ours are. He suggested cutting one down and try it. I'm going to get a used one and try this some time>>>LOL.. I just don't have the time and it's to cold to work outside..Please let me know if you find something and I'll let yoou know if I find something that will work.

WHISKERS...

I have had the same trouble. I have sorta switched paths on trying to find stock replacements to fit over the lug nuts, to finding push through center sleeves and new lug nuts. I havent had much luck nobody seems to have any information to help me out. I have to do something this last snow we got was a pain trying to keep the centers cleaned out. I finally just took the front caps off and put them in the truck. I'll let you know what i find out.

I forgot to mention. A rep from mile marker wanted me to take a picture and send it to him. Maybe if you have the time you can do this.
