Here you go....
Thanks. A guy called me from International today and found some for me that look very similar to yours. I biought them becasue they were half the cost of the others.
I found the Lug Nut Covers and the Front Hub Caps at a Flying J Truck Stop, really cheap too. My rears were not dented so I used some CLR and then Mother's Aluminum Polish and their small Power Ball on a drill motor.
I used the same polish and power ball on the wheels. I usually just do one wheel at a time and take the lug not caps off to do by hand.
Good luck on getting those clean and sparkly.
Clarke,
Nice job on your wheel! Pride of ownership is very apparent.
Thanks Steve....I work on them pretty much like Steve (Prarieschooner) does.....one wheel at a time with Mother's then buff off the polish with a foam rubber power ball with my cordless drill. Worked on them most recently while we were in Spokane back in June....basically did one wheel a day over four days. Could have done them all in a few hours, but why rush?

when you have all the time in the world!!!!!!!!!!
alarm, work, rush, worry.... all words that I've tried to un-remember since retiring. Got a few others but can't remember them....
Why rush? Yard needs mowing, soccer practice at 5:30, swimming practice at 6:00, wife at clinic till 7:00, homework with kids and dinner somewhere in between it all. That's why you rush Clarke.

Haha.....I know the drill...Todd, we raised 5 kids through soccer, homework, school, dance, drill team, and more....finally hired a gardner, and the kids grew up.....now there is no need to rush anymore....there is always another day to get the rest done....
5 kids!!! Maybe Television would have been a good idea....
