Longer wheel studs
Hi Guys
Iv installed the CPP brake kit and switched to a 5x5 setup then used an adapter to a 5x4.75 setup however the CPP 5 lug axle studs are too short for safe daily use. Iv asked CPP for specs of the studs and here is their reply: "Dorman 610-258 1/2-20 Serrated Wheel Stud - .536 In. Knurl, 1-23/32 In. Length" Now, I can't find anything with a .536" Kurl thats longer than 1-23/32. I was reading on other forums and somebody recommended this, DORMAN 610298 Dorman 610-258 vs Dorman 610-298 Head Diameter 0.656 vs 0.735 Knurl Diameter 0.536 vs 0.55 Shoulder Length 0.25 vs 0.688 Thread Length 1.391 vs 1.117 Under Head Length 1.719 vs 2.04 Does it work? does anybody else have any other experiences? Thanks |

Re: Longer wheel studs
My Camaro project wheel studs were over a inch to short for my new style of wheels.
I called summit, and they set me up with a longer set. You will have to run some Emery cloth in there to open them up a few thousands of a inch. You want it a bit tight so when you press it in it stays. If not you may have to tack weld them from behind |

Re: Longer wheel studs
I have bought them at O-Riellys. They have several sizes.
