Lugs and lug nuts
Hello:
After couple of months I am back on my brake upgrade!. It seems it has been a life time. Anyways I switched the front to 8 lug disc but the lugs and nuts are different size than my original drums also from rear drums. I was wondering if anybody knows what is the sizes for the 67-72 8 lugs and lug nuts and 73 and up 8 lugs and nuts. also I am planning to change the rear drums to disc (the one from black bird comapny) therefore I need to know what kind of lugs I need to get when I assemble the rear discs. Thanks

Re: Lugs and lug nuts
up to 70 they were 1/2 inch studs, starting in 71, with the disks, they went to 9/16'ths.
Sometime in the 73 - 87 run towards the end, they went to metric... i think 14mm. |
