      I have the original (to the truck) 1972 AMC color hub caps on a set of 16" wheels from the '60s Gladiators with the 3 clips. My hub caps came off of the original (to the truck) 15" wheels. I also have a set of AMC dog dish hub caps from a '77 J10 with 15" wheels and they are smaller than the early hub caps.




      The early AMC dog dish:


      And maybe just a full truck shot:
      jepj2000 - I Love the look of your truck - so much so that I have it saved and labeled "This is what I want the J Truck to look like" for my own 77 J-20

      I've agonized on what I want my finished truck to look like and I keep coming back to a more functional / lifted original looking vehicle. I have the solid steel rims and "think" are the type that accept the dog dish - if they aren't then I know I need to go look for them now.
      Will go out and check when the sun comes up later.....
      I like that look - thanks for the post of your truck "way back then" and your middle close up picture now - also saved now.

          That's exactly how I want my Cherokee to look when I'm done! Nice shiny hubcaps on some tall and skinny "traction treads"!!!!

                              Wow those are some sweet hubcaps, lol! I never had any idea there were so many variations!

                              Not to threadjack but does anyone here or elsewhere "restore" hubcaps? My '77 wags are really faded and I would like to get them reworked.
