Default 1977 Stock Wheel Stud Specs

I am replacing my wheel studs with longer ones so I can add wheel spacers.

I know the stock ones are: press-in, 7/16-20", right hand thread.

Does anybody know the stock stud length, knurl diameter & knurl length?

Thanks as always

I've got a handful of them laying around - I'll measure one tonight. The stock studs are pretty pathetic, especially in the splined area.

My 74 had long studs and spacers when I got it, but I had to replace them with stock ones in order to run factory wheels. I can ofer you this............be damn sure if you're using spacers to go with hardened studs and not the cheap zinc plated ones. They are available through JEGS and most speedshops.

I believe you need Moroso #46150 lug studs. We use the 46180 on our 1/2" HD parts.
