You would probally do better if you can find a truck parts shop that sells chrome accessories. Look in your phone book and call some of the truck parts shops and ask about the covers you need. Hope this helps. ------------------

Where did you find them? I have been told to check out the Harley store and the truck stop stores. Any suggestions? We got the 10mm & 14mm bolt caps from PepBoys. When looking around for something even larger Norm noticed a tray full of 'freeze plugs' and they come in many sizes. We used them on the front bolts - drilled a hole in the freeze plug and then put a 10mm bolt cap on the threaded end of the bolt. Added a little clear epoxy to make sure they don't fall off and there you have it. Freeze plugs shine up really nice - we also did this to dress up the valve cover: They are not permanent - just put them in place for car shows only. ------------------ Current mods: Mopar dual exhaust & front mudflaps; MacMotorsports Air Intake; Real Rod Air Patrol; Graphics by Balistek Designs; ($8) Chrome grille; Chrome tire valve-stem covers; Painted rear bumper lettering; Prowler Pro Gears; Synthetic Oil; Raybestos Ceramic Brake Pads; TGF Door Panel Inserts & Headrest Covers; SheepskinExpress Sheepskin Seatcovers; Grille Light; Pinstriping by Bo Boring; Painted Valve Cover; Window Tinting; Windshield Visor Banner; Front Bumper Removal / Relocation of Front Turn Signal Lights; and in-progress: Powder Coating Parts under the hood.

That's an old East Coast trick AC - I forget the last count, but I went crazy covering all of me bolts in the rear & in the engine & I almost done with the trailer... PepBoys has to restock yet again... I even put the covers on the bolts inside the rear bumpers which are exposed by a 2 inch slot under the bumper... I use a mirror at car shows to show off my custom tranny cover & neon & polished frame & if you look for them, you can see the bolts in the bumper... Now I just have to cover & tighten a few of the bolts in my head I do like the idea for the larger bolts, I too am having a hard time finding the larger covers... WildBill
