Default Me So Studly

I wanted to use chrome lug nuts on all my CCCs and my 1872 got in line today. The studs are 7/16 coarse thread and since I couldn't find any nuts with coarse thread I looked into changing out the studs and Napa had replacments that were suitable. Napa part #641-1267 and the nuts are from Napa too, 7/16X20.


I first sprayed the head of the stud with penetrating oil and then with the nut on the end of the stud gave it about 30 seconds with the air hammer and then 2-3 whacks with a dead-blow knocked her out. One thing I noticed is that the old stud was pressed tighter to the rotor than the hub so I kept the other four studs bolted up tight to avoid damaging the rotor.


After removing the stud I drilled out the hole with a 15/32 bit and used the new nut to draw up tight the new stud.


Studs, nuts, and bit costs right at $45.

And there ya go.

Scott

Are those lug nuts cone shaped or just flat on the end that butts up against the wheel? If they are just flat, you with wallow out the holes in the wheel. You need cone shaped lug nuts to center the wheel to keep it from moving around the studs.

Otherwise, cool deal. I'm suprised the original studs were coarse thread.

Looks good! So scott how soon before you get a set of those nice alloy wheels that the puller guys use? You know you can't stop at just the lugs.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
