Source for LH Thread Lug Nuts. Flat Wheels P400 Olson Step Van

Hi Bill,

Vin # P40BV533779.

I have a 1973 Ford P400 Chassis Olson Step Van. The Driver Side Rear Dual Wheel has LH Thread Studs and Lug Nuts. The original wheels were 16.5 and "coined". I have switched to 16" flat face wheels due to

Found and Rescued. Brought back to life
the availability of tires. The "Coined" wheel lug nuts won't work on the new flat face wheels. I need to know if there are LH Thread Lug Nuts with a washer available to fasten the wheels to the existing studs?

Thank you,

Patrick Cassidy / Williamsport, PA

Good looking step van.

I don't have any idea about those lug nuts but thought I'd throw this out there.

I used to have a Chevy based Grumman Olson. If you're looking for anything related to the body rather than the chassis/drive line I had decent luck with Mill Supply. I looked all over creation for a rear door hinge and rollers for the sliding door before stumbling across them. I haven't bought from them since about 2012 but they used to be fairly reasonable.
There might be better options now but at least it is a starting point.
