Wheel Studs for 69 Blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I picked up a set of the new Wheel Vintiques stock type steelies that are 15" X 8" with a 4 1/4: backset. Took one down to the body shop where the tub/chassis is and test fitted it on the front. It hits the tie rod end. I came home and got out a set of 1/4" wheel spacers. Went back over and tried them out with no rub on the tie rod end. Will need some studs that are about 3/8 " longer. Anyone know the exact specs of the original K5 studs so I can soures some new ones? Thanks
