On my way to a local “Cruise Night” at a burger shop, l passed an early Datsun 1600 (could have been the 2000) that was on the side of the road, the left rear wheel had fallen off. It was clear all four lug nuts had sheared off. That got me thinking about our very old measly 7/16 studs and high powered (300+HP) engines. Does anybody know the number of a particular 7/16 TRW stud that works on our flimsy little hubs without stretching the holes?? Most of the ones I have looked at the “knurling” on the base is much larger than the Knurling on the stock studs. Pressing them in would certainly cause a lot of stress in an already weak part. Drilling the hubs out so they would fit would be counterproductive. Machining the Knurling down would work, but again counterproductive in my opinion.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Any ideas??<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jerry Christopherson<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>9473187<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>TAC Ins. #58 <o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
