wheel studs.
i just put on some 17's on my 79 and i have 2.5 adapters. when i mounted them on the stock wheel studs look short. what size would be good? i found some on the summit site but i want to make sure i get the right size.

I have had rear 2.5 with my 12X17 inch wheels for many years. The stock studs work they are covered just use good quality full thread nuts. I later changed to bigger diameter for safety and rules.

Please post a picture. My adapter from so long ago were from MidAmerica. maybe the machined holes are not deep enough. the studs should come out to near the 2.5 inch
