The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Front brake wheel stud/brake drum question

The studs are actually a loose fit in the conical holes, but that may be from the studs moving in the holes? (wallowed out?)

I assembled it using the flat holes, and it seems to fit better, torquing the lug nuts seems to go more smoothly.

Thanks for the replies so far.
