late model wheels and center caps need lug nuts - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bought a 85 3/4 ton and it came with late model wheels and center caps, however i need to find some externally threaded lug nuts that will fit my stock wheel studs. any ideals?

conversion lug nuts, lug nut covers

Searh eBay with those two searches...you will find lots. I have 88+ centers and lug covers...and of course the lug nuts too...all off eBay.

does anyone know if the studs for 3/4 tons are 1/2'' or 9/16''

I am going to guess 1/2". Can't you go measure them, or run a couple nuts on them to find out?

9/16 thread. Do an ebay search for "dual thread lugnuts". About a buck apiece.

Tx Firefighter is right for the 3/4-ton.

If you want stock type lug nuts with plastic covers.

I don't care for the plastic covers so I personally would get 60 degree conical seat 9/16 chrome lug nuts instead for just a few more bucks.

If you want chrome lug nuts and locks:

For a little more you can get all 32 as wheel locks:

If you could care less about the finish you can run zinc plated open end lugs:
