Where can I get rear hubcap locking caps?

[Lexington 283]

I have 2 missing on 2005 Lex 283

These are the chrome caps (threaded) that screw onto studs to keep caps in place and are secured with T tool (supplied) with socket head

Does anyone know where I can buy?

My manual says that each rear cap should have TWO of these per cap. My MH came with new Cooper tires but only ONE locking chrome cap per rear wheel, so I think someone dropped the ball after installing new Coopers.

Thanks guys. You've been so helpful to this new owner. Great forum !!!

I bought the complete hubcap, lock nut and wrench on Ebay after my press on hub caps kept coming loose. I did front and rear for 200 something dollars.
Hope this helps.

Some dealers will have them. They will be loose from the hub cap when removing them. I called the hub cap manufacturer and they were about $10 and then shipping was about $20. He told me size of the nut after a few guestions. I was leaving on a month long trip so I went to the ford dealer and could not get a proper fit. Went to Ace gave them the size and bought a second one for a spare. It is not chrome or stuck to the cap but it is doing a fine job. I don't recall the price but it was good enough I said " I'll take two".

I don't know if you got this the first time I sent it? We had a short power burp and lost internet. Anyways, here goes again.

Reputable shop gave me a used 9/16 lock nut today FREE for rear wheel hubcap

Since front wheel is also missing one (of two) of these, I ordered two so as to have a spare.

Paid $8 for one 9/16 lock nut.

My shop said too often the threads aren't deep enough and these cap locking nuts simply pop off. Happens often unfortunately and could result in loss of entire hubcap

Since my hubcaps are like new, I don't want to risk losing any as a set (4) costs around $200.
