Oops... Dana 60 lug studs?
I figured I'd install new lug studs up front just to keep everything "new". Following the LMC catalog, I used 9/16" because I have '72 front 3/4T spindles. Turns out they switched in 71, so my rear only has 1/2" studs.
Looks like that's larger than what I had originally, but its OK because I need them to be able to use the 9/16" dual thread wheels with the H2 wheels I bought. However, now my front lugs are bigger than the rear, so I need to replace the rear. But LMC doesn't list anything for the Dana 60 rear for a 3/4T 2WD. Does anyone know what kind of studs I need to buy in order to get 9/16 at the rear wheels? Also, anyone know of a way to replace the studs without removing the axles? I'd really like to avoid pulling the axles, and there's room to do it, but I'd think hammering on the studs would be a bad idea (they must be up against some kind of bearing surface along the way). Thanks! Dave
