A few threads have shown that the 3/4 hubcaps were like this, could someone please confirm?

Another option are these but if I remember correctly they weren't for 62:

Just picked these up. My spare had clips but the current rims have bumps. Hope they work

The C10 or 1/2 ton wheels came with nubs in 15" using a hubcap with 10 3/16" inner diameter.
The C10 also had wheels with clips for 15",16"and 17.5" which used a hubcap with 7 5/8" inner diameter.
The C20/30 or 3/4 & 1 ton single wheels came in 17.5" & 19.5" wheels with clips. They used the 8 7/8 inner diameter.

Thanks for the info! I'm assuming someone replaced the originals with the C10 wheels since only the spare had clips. I guess I'll know in a few days

Does your truck have 6 lug or 8 lug wheels?
A C20 should have 8 lugs.
You might consider posting a picture of your wheels. They are probably from a later model.

They are 8s. I don't have a good pic, I'll take one when I get home though. This is the only pic I have atm.

I will say that having looking at that pic and especially the rears, it doesn't look like those caps will work.

What you have are late model bump type wheels that were introduced in 1969, it appears only the clip wheel spare is original. Original 3/4 ton '62 hubcaps (back side opening approx. 8 3/4") only fit pre '69 clip type 8 lug rims, unless you add clips to your newer rims.http://www.laroke.com/larryk4674/smo...er/hubcaps.htm
