Not available in Bosnia

I am in lookout for substitute, there are some converter and 3in1 paints around. Will post what I have decided. While searching really could not find anybody on forum sports this hubs started to think it was aftermarket part? Even other SJ419 still got Aisin as standard. If anyone knows, picture is above, no marks on it except LOCK and FREE and made in USA between studs? Hubs are OK, work well its just for my future reference...

These hubs are WARN 39198 like on american Tracker/Sidekick. I did what I have planned. Took them off, removed chipping paint, and sanded 800 then 1400 and alu polishing paste at the end. Did not go all the way with buffing though. Just to have decent shine. Will get stainless steel bolts later too

What on earth is holding that wheel on? Are they plastic bolt covers?
If it ticks over...leave it

Yes, plastic covers packed with grease to keep water off threads and nuts...

Yes that's correct, they were also fitted on later model Vitaras. I had them on my Vit from new until one broke, they have a plastic cam inside that is prone to breaking.

Right, dont like plastic inside either... are they interchangeable with standard Aisins?

Yes, there is no difference in bolt spacing or spline size.
