Im sure at least one out of five people come across this problem, but Google isnt helping. I need new studs on the front axle. They gotta be longer. I can get one off the truck with no problem, but the parts places can only look up by make/model/year and Jegs/Summit sells by exact measurements. What do I do when I have the stud in my hand to know what to buy?
I called Summit and they have longer studs. I just dont know which ones I need. "Wheel Studs, Press-In, 1/2-20 in. x 3 in. Long, .615 in. Diameter Knurl, Set of 5" doesnt really mean much to me.
