How To Measure Current Wheel Studs To Determine An Adequate Replacement
Question:
My old boat trailer had a wheel stud fall out and the other 3 were damaged as a result. I am attaching a picture of the lug nuts that fit and the bolt I need. Auto Zone, ORiley, TSC and Farm and Home didnt have them. They said they have never seen them. Thanks for your help.

While we do not carry the exact same wheel studs as the one's you're looking for, however I'd be happy to help you measure your wheel studs to see if we have a comparable replacement.
What you're going to want to do is, measure the A-F measurements shown below with a set of calipers # PTW80157, and provide that measurement for me.
For instance, the Trailer Hub Wheel Stud # 7-122 has a 1/2" diameter, is 2" long, and has a spline length of .62".
If you're able to provide some information in regards to your current wheel studs, I'd be happy to help.
