I have an 83 Vanagon (with stock steel wheels) and am trying to fit a set of hubcaps from a 71 - 79 Bus. I have seen this done before, so I know it is possible. Anyway, the problem I am having is that the dust caps for the front wheel bearings are preventing the hubcaps from seating properly on the wheel. Is there some special trick that I am missing? Thanks in advance for your advice. |
