can someone validate the thread diameter and thread per inch for the 1929 hub cap and mating thread.

unfortunately my thread gauge will not FIT in the area to measure it. looks to be approx 2-3/8" diameter. my thread gauge is the L-type worked great till now and it is too big @!

gonna have to order another thread pitch gauge (smaller compact style)

any easy way to chase the threads inside the cap to clean them up any ??
