Re: Wheel studs
FYI,
One can also machine the stud knurled side to make it fit the hub and drum.
-I've done this on a drill press when without a lathe.-
The knurl length can be cut down, so that the lug nut can go farther.
I've done this after pressing new studs in, so I don't have too much material
to swage (rivet)
If you're replacing all 5, I run a flat file on the mating surface of the hub, as
the swaging of the original install will distort the surface on the hub.
-I've done this a lot.
