Wheel studs

[1BAD92LX]

I need to install longer rear wheel studs for a 3/8 spacer. To install studs, need to drill out stud hole to 39/64". I realize studs are a press fit but I cannot find a 39/64" drill bit anywhere yet. Will a more common 5/8" bit work? Its an extra 1/64".....

Thanks

Do they not sell exact fit studs for your axles Brad?

Good call on Home Hardware, they have one in stock.
Wheel studs (Moroso) and spacers are Maximum Motorsports ordered through DaSilva's. They aren't many options up here for stuff like that

Now I need to borrow a drill with a 1/2" chuck! Doh!

Can't help you there. You should already have a man-size drill in your toolbox. :stickpoke:

Won't drilling cause an issue with the stud spline or no?

Step bit or hit up a local Rent All for a large drill.

stud splines are bigger which is why enlarging hole is required. borrowing a drill tonight
