cheap caps still have casting flash on the ID's and need to be thoroughly inspected before install, and filed.
itll cut a viton easily.

i admit. the average joe will never need more than plastic caps.
but i strive to not be average.
and my name aint Joe.

@IDIoit sorry I didn’t get them done yet... metal compression with 1/4” female pipe so the original brass barb by 1/4” pipe can be reused!

simple yet effective

Maybe the o'reilly caps were slightly better quality in early 2017? I looked at and felt the insides but didn't see the need to file them any (unless I have forgotten), and none of the o-rings have leaked. The IP inlet olive has been the only issue on there in cold weather.

Looking sharp!! What are the black caps on top? And where did you get the valve covers? Those are sweet too.

This is with the correct front tires and center caps, a more current one is unavailable. Sorry, a current close up would involve cleaning them so its not now.
