[SOLVED] Wheel stud part number check, 1947 DeSoto Custom Sedan


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I'm not sure if they are original, but one side of mine had what appeared to be correct for the the car 7/16 wheel studs with ~0.480 diameter at the knurled portion.

 

I'm going to be doing some hub work along with a properly designed disk brake upgrade. I'll probably use the existing holes for the studs for 7/16" or maybe ream them out for 1/2" bolts to hold the rotor and an adapter/wheel spacer with 1/2-20 studs on the wheel side.

 

I don't have the original part number.   I have Dorman aftermarket replacement part numbers.

 

These are 1/2-20 lugs.  Checking sources, and measuring what I have, it looks like Dorman 610-132 is the "original" size, or at least matches up enough to use.  0.650" diameter at the knurl, 1.625" (1-5/8") length overall.  Looks like an 3/4" to 1" of threading.  

 

For a longer stud, it looks like I can use Dorman 610-132 which has the same knurl diameter and 1.5" of threads.

 

Can I get an "Amen!"  if I'm correct, or even a "Hell no!" if I'm wrong on this.
