Does anyone know the proper dust cap size or part number for a 1968 Dart 270, 9” brakes /6? Lost one on the road and don’t want to get the garbage ones that fall off all the time. Thanks Fam.

Damn, those are hard to find. I don't know if anyone repops them. You might need to start a wanted thread.

Ok, I had the same problem.
What you need to do is find a lawnmower (preferably craftsman dlt3000) and rob the dust caps off of those.
perfect fit.

also, went to o'reilly's to get a "correct" part number for some dust caps and they were nearly 2" in diameter.
 
Approx. about 1.575 inch.
If only you posted yesterday, and i saw your ad, i would have sent you one for a buck or two, and postage.
I was at the post office this morning, but i never know when i will have to be there again.
Only make the trip when i have too, for other things.

Have you considered "shopping" online at the post office?

You pay online, print your label and leave your outgoing package in your mailbox

Then when your mailman passes by, he'll pick it up and ship it


Of course, the big bonus is...they won't qoute you one thing online, and charge you more instore

No, i have no interest, desire, in doing anything like that, with the very limited things that would even make it worth while.
Not worth it for me to do anything like that.

No problem, I just thought it point it out

I am dealing with the same issue! If you have any more I'd be happy to pay $5 and postage for it.

Thanks,
