Sling caps- Ford CMP

Hi Robert,

I think those hub caps are called sling caps and were fitted to Ford CMP's also. I had a Ford F15A parts truck with them fitted. I thought they were used to attach wire slings for loading the vehicles onto a ship but I have heard of other uses for them.

Perhaps another person can confirm or shed some light on their actual purpose.

Cheers,
