HI Steve,

 

I had the same black paper in my hubcaps when I pulled mine apart about 3 years ago. I think the paper's there just to help keep the dissimilar metals from welding together over time. Fortunately, my gears needed only a slight persuasion with a rubber mallet to separate them from the hubcaps.

 

John Hertog produced a piece that's in the Tech Department on our Club site, under Wheels, Bearings and Tires. John doesn't show the paper insert, but talks through separating the gear from the hubcap, when there's more significant corrosion. Good news is that you don't have this corrosion issue with your F hubcaps.

 

Merry Christmas!

Hi 300ites,

Quick question?

 

Just about ready to button up the hubcaps and noticed that the original hubcaps had a piece of heavy black paper between the medallion and the inner hub. Anyone know what it was for?

Do I need a piece of paper between the medallion and hub or not.

Thanks and have a Happy Holiday Season.
