Default 60’s Ansen Top Eliminator Vintage Lug Nuts

Searching for vintage Ansen lug nuts that were originally supplied with 60’s Ansen Top Eliminator & Sprint rims. The acorn nut is 7/8", 3/4" shank length with 7/16” (RH) threads. Also looking for the same lug nut with 1/2" (RH) threads

Lug nuts were available in various shank lengths; will cut down to suit.


Thanks!

I have 10 of these lugs but the shank is a bit longer. You could have them cut down if you want them. You can have them for shipping cost if you'd like them.

No, I have not found any yet. Still searching. If you take a look to see if you have any that would be great. 👍

They are 3/4" and 7/16, 4 of them are the same and the top of 1 is a little different
I went through the box of nuts to find the 3/4 length
It seems like every car/truck I had over the past 50 years wheels were the first thing I changed

Yes, at first glance the ones you have “appear” to be the same except the ones I posted is an acorn (top) style lug nut.

The ones you have are rounded yet have a distinct flat on top.

The ones I am looking for are definitely old school. You would think finding a few would not be so hard to do.

Thanks for digging through your “stuff” much appreciated!

I’m guessing you called the place where the package picture is from. They show 200 in quantity which could be wrong of course.

Thanks..👍

I am somewhat perplexed as to why they’re not so plentiful, especially used? 🤔
