NAPA has wheel studs and lug nuts, as does most automotive stores. Depending on application, you might have to get them overnight ... but they can look them up?

Dad grew up on Snow Creek, Mom over near Cross Roads towards Dudley Schoolhouse. We moved back to Lynchburg in 59 and I went through the metropolis of Sandy Level many times on weekends with my parents. Used to drive mail trucks for George "Wimpy" Myers just up the road from you. He'ld be near 100 now I guess. I can recall when there weren't no SML Dam.

What exactly are you loking for studs for? 1972 F-250? 2 WD ? F or Rear?

I don't need wheel studs I need the studs that hold the axel to the axle housing.

okay those are even easier and cheaper to find!!! You will find them at ace hardware stores that sell servalite products or get them from fastenal or direct from McMaster-Carr they are just standard studs. ARP also sells a kit for the unit but you have to order direct from them or get it through currie enterprise.

Any parts house of your choosing should be able to hook you up, Napa, etc. no need to order them via the internet.

OH .... .... OK .... thought you were speaking about wheel studs, I'm believing that you mean the 4 bolts that bolt the brake backing plate and axle retainer to the end of the axle housing?

They are usually funny looking heads on them, kind of squished looking long oval heads. Often called "T-bolts", maybe 3/8" ?


http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FMS-M-4002-B/

Those above are 3/8-24 NFT 1.30" long Ford bolts for the 9" rear sold by Ford Racing M-4002-B available Summitt, or others ... etc.

You are right, not as easy to find. Not enough room for a bolt's head.
