Question Navigator rims on an expedition

I have a friend that gave me navigator rims(17") to put on my expedition, my question is does anyone know where I can get the caps to cover the lug nuts from. as it stand the gator caps are too big for the expedition lug nuts and the expedition caps do not fit on the gator wheels.
TIA

I'm not sure if I follow your post, but if it has to do with the lugnuts being different, then just get some Navi lug nuts (I can't see as how this could be the problem either, but it's hard to understand without seeing it). Their shouldn't be any difference between the two setups as they are virtually the same chassis. Is one a 4wd and the other 2wd? That could be the only problem I could see, if you are tying to put a 2 wd cap on a 4wd hub. I would check wth some of the local tire dealers (especially those that specialize in custom wheels) and see if they have any takeoff caps that they will trade with you. You can also check in the wrecking yards for the caps. Good luck.

I think you hit the nail on the head, His is a 4 wheel drive and mine is a 2 wheel drive, I'll just pick up the caps for a 2 wheel drive navi from the dealer.
Thanks
PS Big Cloud you ride looks good!!!

Check out the 16" nav Wheels on my rig. Ebay with tires (1/2 worn) $300 +$100 shipping. Rare 16" keeps my gearing the same, could be used to drop gear for performance I spose....
Summer time Nav wheels. Winter 16" exys with Goodrich AT's for the snow!!! Mark

I still think that the stock Expedition rims look better. Why did you guys decide to change yours?

I left mine stock. http://members.tripod.com/amrant007/id27.htm

I'm putting those navigator rims on my F-150 once I do a few other mods. I've got the rims sitting in my basement all ready to go .
