Exclamation Rear Disc Conversion

So I'm in the process of the Rear disc conversion on a DANA 60 in my F350 4X4.

The problem I am having is with the wheel studs. The New ones from Dorman will not keep the rotor to the back side of the hub. Has anyone else had this problem? If I reuse the old studs it will hold but the new ones will not. My old studs are pretty messed up and I have no choice but to replace them. Does anyone know where I can find the Ford factory ones? Even a Part number for them?

I reused my original studs so I really can't help much. Could you run a die over the original studs and reuse them?

Used the 9/16 Stud from a 97 F250 4X4 Worked perfect no drilling nothing!
