I totally agree,,,,,, new longer studs should only take a few hours to do,
and would be cheaper than buying a drill bit,,,,,,,,an no gorilla glue will not
work, sorry had to add that

Maybe it's just me,but all the talk of drilling into an

drilling were my only option to put a wheel on I wouldn't do it.

If you drill all the way through the wheel would it only leave a
hole? I was talking about the existing bevel for the acorn nut. If the
drill bit required was smaller than the outside diameter of the
existing bevel for the acorn nut. That of course would depend on the
size of the shank of the nut used. The size of the shank would
determine the size of the drill bit needed. If only I could draw a
picture. :)
Sent from John
There will be a bevel
because of the drill shape
If after drilling there is some of the
bevel left a washer could be machined to fit the bevel and you would
have a really secure wheel.

If you have a drill heavy
enough to handle a big bit you could go to a shoulder type
nut
Thanks Paul,
Any way to
mod the wheels instead of the drums?

I ran into the same problem
when I put my Anson wheels on my car. Studs too short.
Got longer studs at NAPA. I couldn't find exactly the
length I needed so bought longer ones and cut them off to length
using a whizzer. I used the acorn style nuts that came with
the wheels. Made sure I left them long enough so 90% of the
threads in the nut are engaged. No problems in 3 years and
several hundred miles.

Hi All,
Eager to mount a
set of Torq Thrust wheels on my 300K Ram. But we're running into a
safety issue.
The 1/2" diameter studs which are pressed
into the hub and the drum aren't long enough. We've tried standard
lugs (LH/RH) from Classic Industries but there just isn't enough
bite to be safe. Research "suggests" that the set up should use
acorn-style lugs and not sleeve-type.
As background, the
wheels are early 1970s Torq Thrust-style units from Appliance
Plating (AP) in 15x7.
Looking for information on how to
safely mount these wheels on the 300. Safety is paramount and it's
important that the wheels be firmly attached to the car (for
obvious reasons!).
Many thanks for any and all
advice/suggestions/leads!
