Wheel stud required longer
I need to get a set of longer wheel studs for a 1975 kombi. I know the thread is 14 x 1.5mm. I see that a company called Nice Products has 14 x 1.5
long 73mm studs. They come with two different knurled section diameters. 15.7mm and 16.25mm.
Does anyone know what the knurl diameter is for a late Bay bus original stud?
Have you fitted longer studs and what knurl diameter did you use?
Will the holes have to be drilled out? Obviously if the original and after market sizes are different

on the back http://www.vwparts.net/MB70-2810.html and these which the
knurl was about the same size on the front http://www.vwparts.net/CB7530.html but if i was buying again i would get the 57mm ones

Thanks for that. I have hit a lot of dead ends so far.
