[Found!] Dust Caps for 9 in Brakes

[mydart270]

OK...drove around town with no hub caps and guess what? R/F dust cap fell off and never to be found. Now duck tape over spindle, cotter key, and nut to protect bearing.

Does anybody have 2-3 dust caps for my 1968 Dodge Dart 270 with shoe brakes (9 in)?? Send me an EMAIL if you have some nice and non-beaten up dust caps for sale?.

Dust caps must be able to stay in well of drum after tapping them in, no partial installs and smashed tops. Send me pic's for the OEM type. OD about 1 1/2 in if I recall and must not be imprinted with "TAIWAN"

Thx....MOPARs are the best

Use a piece of pvc pipe to drive them in.
I need to find a pair for my car, hoping they are common size. China,taiwan or africa, i dont care who makes them as long as they dont fall off.

Google, Dorman dust cap.
Sold from the Dorman help section at auto part stores.

As far as I know, Dorman does not have one to fit 9 inch drums/hubs. The one they have listed is for 10 in drum/hub (larger).

Look at trailer caps believe they are 1 1/2"

Wrong......Sorry Charlie.

 

[Charrlie_S]

Oh Drat. First time in my life I've been wrong.
Do you have the Dorman part number?

Lol...Just funning Charlie.
Stay calm, and Google Doorman dust cap, lets say 70 Dart.

I did that, and got a part number, 13976, but it didn't say if 9 inch or 10 in brakes. When I checked for a 63 Valiant, which only had 9 inch brakes, it came up "zero" results. I'm pretty sure the 13976 is for the 10 inch and won't fit the 9 inch hubs.
Did a little more research. Mopar part number for the dust caps is:
9 in, 2072 718
10 in and disc, 2409 523
Search " partsvoice.com " turns up several NOS dealers that have the 9 inch in stock.
