I need help with something stupid
hello, This has been buging me for awhile, but I cant figure out how to take my hub caps off of my 04 f150. I have tried to stick a prybar between the plastic and metal on the outter flange and from the middle out (under the center cap). I'm not sure if I should force it or if theres a trick to it. heres a picture of the wheel if it helps...
I have the same wheels and have always used 2 screwdrivers. 1 being the biggest/longest flat head for prying and another one any size you want. Wrap the smaller one in a towel and put it sideways across the rim above the "prying" hole and use the flathead to pry the cap off. It will take a little force so don't be a sally!
In your picture, you can see the two slots that allow you to place the pry part of the rods used to operate the factory jack, or to use large flat bladed screwdrivers as the previous poster answered.
Wraping with a rag is a good idea to prevent the chrome from getting scratched. They will pop off.
