    More info please.

    Ok read on your other post it's the cap.
    You say it screws in ----How hard is it to put threads in the hub?

    TDE Vortex hubs ARE threaded. They use plastic threaded caps from factory.

    I do not get why so many people have trouble with the plastic caps. After saying that I will switch over to metal when and if my break or strip.

    Check out the Nitro Forum. Everything you need to know about the hub/cover issues. There are two different hubs/caps with different threads. Mine had cracked plastic caps all replaced by the dealer with the new metal caps. I believe this was a Tracker Trailer issue with FDL hubs.

    Those caps come in 2 different sizes. Can you give a part number that they replace? I’m interested as I’ve replaced2 caps in the last year.
