who sells gas caps online?

[monster man]

I tried all the parts stores in town, and NONE have a pair of locking gas caps, or pair of gas caps to fit my truck period. What a joke
I have dual tanks, but the seals are shot so when I get cranked up on a incline it starts taking a leak- not good. And the ky is worn down and barely opens the locks

EBay and JCWhitney came up short- anybody know of a place?

did yo0u try LMC?

 

[monster man]

I can't seem to find my catalog, and have one on order, but they don't have an online inventory Really want to see what they look like before purchasing

cant you go to like www.napaonline.com or www.partamerica.com and just have them ship it to you from the werehouse?

I'm almost positive that LMC has locking gas caps, you could also try http://www.classicindustries.com/ You can browse their catalog online (It's really big though - covers Chevy trucks from the 50's all the way to the 90's... pretty extensive). Anyways on their site you can see what you are getting before you buy.

Edit: Heres the exact link to the Fuel and Exhaust secion of their catalog. Scroll down.. first page you have your locking gas caps.

go to the normal parts stores like autozone, napaonline or summitracing websites you can get parts delivered to your door. I lived in germany for 7 years, it was still cheaper to order parts online than pay the german prices

Pretty much every store in the US is sold out of locking gas caps right now. Gas thefts rose with gas prices, so everyone suddenly wanted a locking cap.

Here's a press release that I found on the Stant site the other day:

hmmm..... no shortage in locking caps around here, they have walls full of them here with only a few empty slots. The problem I've had is finding a pair that are keyed alike that fit my truck. It's like they forgot about me. I never thought I'd go into a parts store and my '73-87 trucks would be considered so outdated there isn't parts on the shelf for them. WHat's this world coming to

Gas Cap's

Have you tried, www.autozone.com , I know they sell things online that are not availble at the AutoZone stores around me. I just had to go through them online for a set of door locks for my girl friends Wrangler. They were not availble locally here in BFE Wisconsin

I would buy two that are the same brand and take them to a locksmith and have him rekey one to match the other. I just had a locksmith here key two of my toolboxes to the same key and it cost me 8.50 with 2 new keys

 

[monster man]

shoot- that's not bad! I saw that partsamerica.com had a pair, but they were $20 EACH, so $40 for two caps! I'll just get two separate ones and have them rekeyed when I get sick of picking the wrong one, the shipping would probably cost as much as the locksmith

 

[BozoWise]

Just keep the receipt for the caps incase the locksmith finds he can't remove the pins to rekey the lock. Might have to try a few different caps before you find one htey can work with. I know my locksmith is a wiz. He unlocked the deadbolt on my house and the door handle lock in under 2 minutes with a pick set when my keys were stolen.
