    Oh, sorry I did not shovel up to the J10, and now it's dark. It's going to be dry the next few days, and I can get to it. I have a spare cap in the basement, but it's not a "real" cutout - someone cut the center out of a regular cap. The factory caps with a hole have a nice rolled edge.

    Ack! Snow, lol. I have one cap that has the factory hole with the rolled edge. It fits the rim (as I tried it on the rear rim). But the hole is to small to fit over the lock out hub :sick:

    I know my 70 CJ had hub caps originally, however, someone put warn hubs on up front (don't think they were an option - please let me know if they were). I would convert back to use these again. The red/gold, I believe is what you need for a regular CJ.

    I am getting ready to complete the restoration of my 1966 Tux.

    For the two piece design - Does the value stem fit under the trim ring? There does not appear to be a hole in the trim ring....
