    Posted: 03 Mar 2017 at 11:43am
Would anyone know an automotive crossover for the front wheel studs on a WD45? I'm missing a couple, and the guys at the auto parts store are not very helpful when I tell 'em that they're from a 1955 AC WD45! The studs are 1/2" NF, 1" long with a relieved shoulder to tighten against the wheel.

Thanks!

Thanks, Stan. You got me in the right area!

For anyone else looking, those (ABC397) are for the rear wheels. The front wheel lug studs are smaller: ABC399 on Steiners' site.

So are you needing some studs? I am sure local salvage yard has them, or I have some I could sell you? How many do you need?

Are they metric? I wouldn't think so, but maybe they are. I'll wait until daylight and go see.

Yup - I could borrow a couple from my D14 - it uses the same studs.

I ran a 1/2-20 thread chaser onto one of mine yesterday.....don't think they're metric.

Ted, the vendors on here carry them - at least Steiners does. I gotta believe that they were commonly used back when wheels were bolted on with studs rather than sliding them onto studs as we do now.

I ran all the studs through a thread chaser and ditto for the hub holes. Mounted the wheels with two new tri-rib tires. The 'ol machine is starting to feel spoiled!
