Re: [Chrysler300] Need new wheel studs

["Don Verity" <d.verity@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Brian,
  Are these universal wheels with slotted stud openings, or do they have round holes with tapered seats? The Cragers I put on my F were the universal design that take a lug nut with a straight shank and a shoulder. They make plenty of thread contact. I would not recommend putting longer studs in. 
300ly,
  Don Verity

  Subject: [Chrysler300] Need new wheel studs


  I replaced the wheels on my 63 Chrysler with some vintage Crager rims 
  and need to install some longer wheel studs in the drums. The 
  current 1' ones just clear the rims, not enough to be safe.
  I also figure it will be a good time to replace the reverse threads 
  as well.

  I assume the studs I need are 1/2 thread, and i'll look for longer 
  than 2" in length. But the question I have is: Whats the correct 
  Knurl? The ones Ive found have a .685 knurl.. will this work on the 
  tapered drums on a 63?

  Anyone know the answer? Or know a good source for new wheel studs?

  Thanks in advance
  Brian H
