Front wheel studs

Are the Dorman studs good to use or are the factory OLD ones better?  66 fastback

Re: Front wheel studs

Finding some factory OLD ONES of the correct length for retrofit brakes is difficult.  Dorman studs work fine.
For COBRA or GT brake conversions, use .627" knurl 610-368 (1-31/32" long) or .623" knurl 610-441 (2-3/16" long)
Both have dog point, so actual effective length is about 1/4" less than stated.


Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
