bpperk Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I have one that was on my 2004 Signature. I don't know if it would fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xlr8ting1 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Try Veurinks rv parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodylmiller Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Northwest supply in Coburg might have some, that's we get. Pricey $$$. Need to find a better source. Last one was around $30, a rip off. Woody Miller 09 Dynasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony G. Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I found these online. I know mine are 8.5 inch round. Not sure about yours. But this site has many styles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger 2006 HR Endeavor PDQ Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 The steer axle hubcaps on our 2006 Endeavor are of the moon style. Be careful to match the tabs on the back of the hubcap to the keyways on the hub. There are a few variations of tabs. If you get one that doesn't fit and you can't return it you'll have to do some cutting and filing to make it work. Veurink's has several versions and they have the stick-on plastic logos for the centers. They made our '06 look like an '07!

vegaman19760 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 The front steer hubcaps can have different configurations on different makes and models. Not only the diameter but even more important the number of tabs and the position of the tabs that hold the cap on. Take the front cap off that you still have and take it to any large truck shop or dealer like Freightliner (just an example). Then they can match it up. The new cap may not have the logo on it for your coach but you will have a cap that fits. You may or may not have noticed (maybe you will now) that many large trucks are missing their front steer hubcaps. At first you may think that wow these guys are going over some pretty bad roads and loosing those hubcaps. But you won't find them on the side of the road and it's not from metal pickers on the highway. It's because they also have hub oil in their front axles just like our coaches have and with the cap off they can easily check the fluid level with a quick walk around at every stop (or when they choose) to make sure what the fluid level is and that the seal has not or is not failing with the number of miles they put on. So the next time you are on the highway and can safely check out the front axle of the truck that is passing you or you passing it. take a quick look to see if it has a front hubcap or not. Checking the level of the front axle fluid on our coaches is one of the many maintenance procedures we are supposed to do. Some people do, some don't but those that make a living driving over the roads do and taking that hubcap off time and time again gets old so they just take them off and make their job easier. Stay safe, Stay well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigNick Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I bought one from Veurinks with the "Flying R" logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert U Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I have bought new axle covers (hubcap) for 2000 Dip 22.5 inch wheel from Wheel Masters. P/N 22582 Phone 1-800-325-9484. Check them out on wheelmasters.com Bob U . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96 EVO Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I've successfully ordered and received the proper tag axle cap from Wheel Masters, for a decent price! I had previously ordered it from Veurinks, paid a bundle for the item, and shipping, and they sent a steer axle cap 😣! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocreek141 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 If your looking for original simulators or caps best place to find an original is from Colaws salvage in Carthage Mo. I had purchased one very cheaply from them. They are great to work with and have many styles and will get you the right one. They're number is 877-548-2125 Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J A Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 You may not have seen these or heard of these. I had them on a coach 10 years full timing. Expensive, but one less issue to deal with and cleaning the wheels was/is so much easier. An absolute personal choice. https://www.tkane.com/ Axle covers. Takes 5-10 minutes to remove/reinstall.

dandick66 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I got my first replacement directly from REV. I think it was about $35. It stayed on for one trip, so I started looking at truck stops and chrome stores. Lots of people said to just take the hub cap and they can match it. I stopped at a bunch of different stores and no one could match mine. I finally made a cardboard template of my hubcap area, including the notches. What I finally found that worked for me was a 6 tab universal cover. I still had to take my Dremel tool and modify 2 of the notches l. I then took a small amount of silicone sealant and it holds great. I used Grand General part number 10770. Cost was $6.99. I actually made a spare, too, but have not had to use it yet. My coach is a 2012 Diplomat 43DFT. Roadmaster RR10R. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvrtoofast Posted December 6, 2021 Author Share Posted December 6, 2021 Great feedback. I'll start by pulling the driver's side before it disappears. I like the ones Paul A. brought up. I checked the axle for what vegaman19760 mentioned, But I had no sightglass or otherwise to check. I think my axle may be different. Thanks all!
