hub caps

Post by sendiw »

hello all
I bought some nice shiny hub caps at Dubroast. When I tried to fit them I found that the nsf one wont go on because the end of the speedo cable is in the way at the centre of the hub cap. Any ideas :idea: how to get round this please.

Richie, If your grider is still operational ,I'd be simply skimming the prowd bit off the end of the cable,,,,,,,OR even placing a socket (8mm) over the bit sticking out of the grease cap and giving it a whack with an FBH.

Regards

Fritz,,,,,,, :D

Thanks Fritz I will give that a go. The FBH seems to be a very common solution with our vans
