Wanted - 1931 AA Rear Axle Center Caps

Post by Joe G »

Hey,

New guy here, looking for a set of rear axle center caps for a 1931 AA I'm building. Whether you have some or know where I can get some, I would sure appreciate any help I can get.

Here is one of the axle nuts I'm trying to cover:

Here's my project:

I wish I would have found this forum a lot sooner. I'm sure it could have saved me some time and money (and headaches).

Thanks,
Joe G.

HOLY BALLS! If that's the going rate for these, I may have to just go without. Those are way too nice to go on my truck, but thanks for responding Bud.

Do you have any that are just serviceable, instead of perfect?

That truck looks too nice to put a set of old axle caps on it. Most all of the old unrefinished caps are dented and rusty. Bud's price is a good price for a full set of cad plated hub caps. $62.50 each. I'd pay it if I needed them.

if you're OK with almost right or just have a driver then you can get chrome TT hub caps from snyder's that fit the rear of the AA. the look almost the same. Image

$14.94 each... part # T-2819-T

My research shows that the TT cap is smaller than the AA hub. Maybe my research is wrong. Has anyone tried to use the TT cap or have the ID and thread information?

i bought the TT caps from Snyder's and they fit and look great... the average joe wouldn't know they didn't belong.

the length of the cap and threads are the same. the only diffrence is the logo and the hex head is a little smaller on the TT
