C'mon goon...
I haven't measured the knurl diameter of my stock wheel studs.
So I should.

Source and check a laguna rear, build the pumpkin with gears, flush the cover mount and have the axles checked.

Or.

Figure out what size bolts I need and spend the $30.

You get enough sleep last night bro?

By the way, when this thing needs help stopping, Speedway sells a rear disc setup with stock style calipers where everything bolts on for 3 and change...

I'm with you, here's a better description of what I am looking for:

The wheel stud is pressed through the axle flange, then the drum and wheel slide over the studs....

The studs have a knurl that seats into the axle flange, and arp, moroso, etc, wheel studs are sold in a variety of knurl diameters.

See the knurl?

Thanks Derrik.
Def need to go to Moroso or ARP or a little more solid stud for my sanity.
And why take the time to look it up when Goony is just itching to do it for me?
Just fooling guys... I'll keep that site handy, I have used a lot of Dorman in the past, don't know why I didn't think of the website...
