my dog ate my dust covers

I know she did, just got done doing the front brakes on my 54 Chevy, I got it all back together and can't find my dust covers any where. Went to the neighborhood typical parts store they didn't have a clue and the ones on the "help" rack aren't right , gotta have them by this weekend . Anyone know a part number or who might have them.
Thanks

 

I needed some dust covers one time and could not find direct replacements. I measured the ones in the help section and I got lucky and found some just slightly too big.

I cut the lip that goes in the hub in three places witha die grinder and then drove it in. I have removed them and reinstalled them and they seem to hold fine.

Hopefully you can get as luck as I did.

 

there should be an ***ortment of sizes maybe another parts store may have the right ones..if in a pinch..i have used black RTV ..I put a small piece of tape on the back side spread a little RTV and let it dry peal the tape back off and re asemble..

 

oh and National chevys got em..but you'll wait a few days for em..

 

Actually, I had the same prob (losing a dust cap... not with the dog eating them!). The Advanced guy sold me some fancy pants Mr. Gasket chrome ones that didn't fit. I went back and found some plain janes in the "Help!" section that work great. Napa also has them if you ask.

 

Great , i'm going to NAPA at lunch, the ones i found in the "other" perts places aren't deep enougt , the ID of the hub is like 2.075 . Thanks for the info............

sorry dont know where my head was this morning..you ment bearring cap right?..i thought you were talking about the small oblong hole for adjusting your brakes..those are called dust caps also..

 

are you talking the small rubber plugs? if not your dog may have a problem p***ing anything larger...lol

 

For some reason, I was thinking about the dust shields used on disc brakes, but you probably are running stock brakes.

 

Should have been more specific, yea its the Bearing dust covers, thanks

 

My son in laws dog ate the tail lights off my utility trailer!!! Sorry about your dust covers.

 

dam i'd hate to screw with that dog..

 

Thats what you get for using Viene sausage cans for dust covers!
