****ALL OF THE INFO IS STILL GOOD AS OF Mar 4, 2021***

Send them directly to Dick Linneman. He thinks he needs me in the equation, but he doesn't need me.

Shipping is $ 15, total, for one or four caps.

Repair is $ 30 for one plus $10 shipping
Repair is $100 for four plus $ 15 shipping.

Mark the back of them with a magic marker and he will make sure you get the same ones back.
He usually repairs them the same day he gets them (or the next day, at the latest). He holds them a day to make sure the epoxy (?) sets and the ring does not get knocked out of place during shipping. You should get them back in about a week from the day you shipped them off. The weekend could delay that a day or so. He does them quickly.
You can remove the tabs and the O ring before you send them to Dick. He breaks them off and throws them away. If you break them off you don't have to worry about them scratching the other caps plus it cuts down on space and weight.
The return shipping is higher because the caps weigh a bit more with the repair.

The information here is still current as of 3/5/20.

Great and thanks for sending them directly to him. He is about 30 minutes from me so I don't get over there all that often unless I have to drop some off.
He will get them back to you quickly.

He used to use UPS but I am not positive if he still does.
I just called him and he said he uses the U S Mail now. If that presents a problem I am sure he can do something else. The U S mail is just a little more convenient for him I am sure.

I agree. Received my four repaired center caps yesterday via USPS. One week turnaround using USPS (3/08 to 3/15) and including the repair by Dick Linneman. Thanks...

I had a question the other day, asking can Dick repair them BEFORE they fail. Yes, they can be repaired. In fact he breaks off all of the tabs and throws away the ring if it is still attached. You can actually break off the tabs before you ship them, if you want to. Smaller package and less chance of scratching the chrome by the other caps inside the package.

AC says its from one of his trojans, but Lethia keeps reminding him that he's thinking of the TPMS o-ring.

The hardware store ? I don't know where Dick buys them but I am sure they are available somewhere.

Just keeping this where folks can find it.

Again, I would like to buy some broken center caps. I only have a few spares at this point.

As the cruising season gets near the end, in some areas, it might be time to check your center caps to make sure they are not loose and rattling. You don't want to lose one, they are pricey.

I just received my caps. Ed, thank you very much. To all, Ed sent them without payment up front - I appreciate the service and the trust. My old caps and payment is on its way.
Again, thanks Ed.

You will notice it was a 50-50 effort by me and Dick.
HE did both halves, I had nothing to do with it.

Dick is going to be visiting his daughter in N.C. for about 3 weeks so if you are planning on sending him center caps for repair, let me know ahead of time.
You can probably ship them to me and I can send you repaired caps while he is gone. I have about 8 or 10 extras at this point.
