Dust Covers

[FullCircle]

I need to replace one of the dust caps that covers the nut on the front spindle. I also noticed that when I checked the one on the other side it takes very little pressure to remove it. Is there an aftermarket cap that works better than the plastic oem caps. I think I will put a little clear silicone on them to help hold them in place. Also what is the cost of the oem covers because if they're all like mine I'm sure someone else has lost one.

Year and model of your Spyder? FWIW, on several models of 2014s the part is called Wheel Cap, Part #704401100, $4.99 from the BRP parts catalog. Look under Drive System, Front. I have read on SL of some folks using silicone to seal the cap on their machines.

Sorry about that it's a 2014 RT

I used some silicone sealant on mine....did a survey on a Spyder ride with about 12 Spyders -- about half of them were missing one or both of their front caps! :yikes: So....I did add the silicone dab on each cap on my 2014 to prevent loss...:thumbup: Never checked my 2012! pps:

Just ordered two wheel caps from BRP. I thought I would go ahead and get an extra since shipping was going to be the same. $6.99 shipping was cheaper than driving 160 miles round trip to the dealer. Thank's for the info.
