Does the new Wheel/bearing set up include dust caps for the wheel bearings? I heard somewhere that it did. If it does come with dust caps would the caps fit on the early models?

12bolt- Yea, that's what's been posted. The new wheel has larger bearings, three bearings vs. two, and separate dust seals. I doubt the dust seals will work with the old wheels due to the change in diameter of the bearings plus I believe there'll have to be some additional "recess" in the wheel to press the dust seal into.

Court has a 2010 rear wheel on order for his Uly so we should see detailed photos soon.

The Part number for the wheel is SUPPOSED to include EVERYTHING. I'll be confirming when mine arrives.

I looked at one today and strangely . . . . I started feeling better. Age my age it could be gas.
