Currently in Charleston South Carolina--on the way here we lost the center cover and decorative nut on a rear wheel. Now all of the lug nuts are exposed (freightliner chassis).
Can someone suggest a parts internet dealer I could order one and have it shipped here?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions

We don't have a "toad", that's the reason for shipping it here.

Check out FlyingJ. I have picked up lug nut covers from them.

But it IS just decorative, you don't need it ASAP. That's why many do NOT have them on, account it HIDES any defect or corrosion of lugnuts etc. TOM

Almost every truck stop I've been to have them. I replaced a few of mine from Flying J so I know they have them. Next gas up, pick some up. If you go to Flying J the price goes towards increased fuel savings...D

I assume you only need one cover so you will have to contact them via phone or email. Here is the link to a full set..does the cover look like the one you need???....Dennis

The wheel cover is called a simulator.. you may have to search a bit but start with any place that services trucks and ask them who might have 'em.

Or call a local trucking company and/or towing service and ask them. That's what I did.. NOTE the ones I got are not OEM type.. But I have to say I like 'em better.

Camping World should be able to get them, your dealer can get 'em, your chassis manufaturer can ship them.. I like being able to walk in and walk out with 'em however.

Look in the Yellow Pages. I would think Charleston would have a Ftliner dealer.

Should be overnight from the factory right there in SC.

Another good reason to have a "toad"
