Walleye72 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I recently purchased a Tracker boat on a Shorelander trailer. I recently read about needing the correct 4-way or wrench to remove the tire in case of a blowout. In preparation for an upcoming trip, I walked out to my trailer to investigate and found the lug bolts blocked by a cover of some kind. Is that simply more decorative hubcap or something with a purpose? And how do I get that cover off. I pulled on it and twisted it and it didn't seem like it wanted to come off. This is probably a very noob post to have to make, but this is all new to me. Thank you very much. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Clemens Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) I have one like that. Gota get in there under that top section with a flat screw-driver. Should pop right off. On the inside of the cap - each of those prongs fits around the lug nut underneath it.. Loosen up and pull it off straight back towards you. Fit back in place and give her a tap to get her back on there good Edited July 18, 2013 by Rich Clemens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 My guess is it just pops off like a hub cap. Use a big flat screwdriver to try and pop it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Should be a slot on one outside edge.As said a screwdriver should pop it right off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
