I have a 70 charger with drum brakes. I am looking for the wheel bearing grease caps that are CHROME but I can't find any. Does anybody know where I can get some?  Thanks

Never heard of wheel bearing caps that were chromed.  You might have to buy a set and then send them out to be chromed.  The problem with that is when you beat them on, you will mar up the chrome.

You're sure that you aren't thinking of chrome center caps for the wheels that are shaped like a grease cap?  Like some of the old ET mags?

I have seen some chrome style center caps (worked auto parts a long time).  they no longer make them, but rather just the galvanized type steel caps.  It is a motormite part number.

I needed some for my 71 with disc brakes, since mine were in horrible shape. Good luck with your standard auto zone, napa -- I could never get anything the right size through them. Wound up going to the junkyard with one of mine and hunting -- guy let me walk out with like 15 for $5 --- but if you're looking for chrome, they probably won't have anything for you.

Sorry -- don't know!! :shruggy:

If they don't have to be chrome go to a yard with any older chrysler, dodge cars and pick 'em a-plenty. I'll keep watching the post -- hopefully someone knows.
