[Fot] wheel studs TR6

[WILLIAM TOBIN]

  Hi, I'm using studs gotten from Jegs; Summit and most other places sell
basically the same thing.
  They're about 2 3/4 inches long. The hubs need to have the holes enlarged
and the studs pressed in. Easy job. I have the reamers if you need to borrow
them. My machinest says ream, don't drill. If you don't have a press, use
the BFH.
  I use my Panasport lug nuts that at one time were acorn style (closed
end). I chucked them up in my lathe, drilled clear through, them tapped the
newly drilled section so they will screw onto the longer studs.
  All this is pretty easy with the hubs disassembled.
  Hope this helps.
