Thank you ! Great photos Factorystock ! Very interesting . It really makes me wonder why they made a factory 4x4 cap and then they don't use it on all 4x4s ? But on the other hand, it makes sense . With the hole being 5 inches , the cap in your picture can easily be cut without worrying about the G or C still being on the cap . 1/2 ton that doesn't work.
