Wanted Need a wheel center cap

[modelafish]

I need a wheel center cap like the one pictured. I picked up these wheels at a local pick-and-pull in the Ranger section. Looks like they were on 2001-2007 models. Only found one center cap. UPDATE: Found one. Thanks

That appears to be s center cap from an Alcoa wheel that was a factory offering on a FX4 Ranger.

Nice find on the wheels... and good luck in your search for center caps.

I've seen some on ebay in the past.

Those originals are too expensive. I say make your own custom center caps.

I'm all for DIY, but my brain's not the creative kind. I don't really need the cap to come out far like the other one. It's on an 8" rear axle. I spent a couple hours going thru the Ford section at a couple local pick and pull places looking at what other models had, but nothing in the 3" range. As far as making something, all I envision is something made out of aluminum or even wood on a lathe. (which I don't have). I really don't like the looks of those roughly 6" caps that snap over all five lugs. This is how the one I do have looks:

FWIW, after going thru several hundred listings on Ebay, I did find a couple of pricey used ones; but I also found some aftermarket ones, without the center logo. They come from Taiwan, so who knows what the final price may be after new tariffs are added. I'm in no hurry, so I'll see what we come up with here. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3233148748...SK0YG8qiWTMUwQcqlZW6AZG0Nw==|tkp:BFBMtr6s3-dl

The center caps, if you will, I made for the Magnum 500's on my '75 Ranchero. Some at car shows ask if these are holding the wheels on.

Thanks. I ordered one from Ebay a few days ago.

Aren't these same center caps on Crown Vics with alloy wheels?
