My 01 ranger is 4x4 and has no grease caps over the center of the hubs in the front. Anybody know what size these are or have a part number for me?

'01 4x4s don't have grease caps
you should have "live" front hubs where a stub axle sticks out and has a large nut securing it. there is no cotter pin.

And should be no grease in there :)
The wheels had center caps covering the axle/nut/hub

Thanx for the reply, gents. Guess it's a dust cap to which I was referring. It just looks funny bc I'm not running center caps.

If your bearings are like mine, they are a sealed unit pressed into a hub assembly that bolts onto the knuckle. So, unlike the RWD models, there is no exposed bearing to require a cap for protection.
