What's the difference in the auto hubs on a 91 xlt and a 98 limited ? the front center caps wont fit onto the 91 ( the 98 rims) , and the 91's center caps wont fit onto the 98. Why is this ?

The 98 has a sealed hub/bearing assembly which is totally different than your TTB with autohubs and serviceable bearings.

And to add, the 91-94 have that hub sticking out of the side, which there is a hole in the 91-94 rim for. The 98 center cap is smaller......
 






I sold my '96 Wheels to my buddy with a '94 (ttb) Ranger. With a little custom work, the caps went on great!

It just looks like there's a 4x4 sticker on the center cap.
