I put a new front hub stub on today that I purchased from one of our 
regular vendors.   When I went to insert the old  dust cap found it will 
not fit in the  stub.   The ID of the new stub is smaller than the 47 
year old  original stub so the cap cannot go into its place.  The vendor 
suggested I grind down the outside of the cap  which I have done to make 
it smaller,but now I am getting to the point where I do not want to 
take  anymore off the cap.  Has anyone else run into this problem and if 
so whats the answer.  Will the new caps fit into these new hubs.   When 
I did the other front one last winter had no problem.
