    Wheel studs

    Hi

    Anyone got a set of 4 rear wheel studs for a Mk2 Marina based Roadster.

    3/8 UNF I believe?

    Regards

    Adrian

    Re: Wheel studs

    I can’t help feeling that wheel studs are one of those items you ought to get new. They are a press fit and will inevitably not be as tight in a second hole. You should also be aware of the stud length, especially if fitting alloys. I know that Ford studs are readily available in a range of lengths. I’m not so familiar with Marina parts but hopefully someone on this forum will be.

        I'm also not familiar with Marina parts, but I know that Ford studs are available with oversize splines to ensure a tight fit.
