Default Re: 1953 Mercury Hub caps

Dobie,

As I responded on the Early Ford V-8 Club forum, full discs tend to walk, then pop off, whenever radials are used. There are many old tales on how to fix, but the only fix that I have seen work is steel valve stems, like used on some trucks. The wheel cover will move against the stem and stop. It should not come off. Several guys I know have had success.
