Kelsey Hayes longer wheel studs

OK, more pics.

1) Basic position of stud if it were installed; 2) illustration of how little thread engagement was happening with the OE studs; 3) side-by-side comparison.

That isn't going anywhere, there is more meat there than there is on a rear axle. The original studs were designed to have the tops swedged so they did stick out past the hub.
 
Great thread thanks rmchrgr, you have done well!
Thanks for sharing

No problem, Gary. Sometimes you gotta roll the dice on this stuff. Hope this helps you guys out down there as well. Obviously much easier for you all down under to facilitate.

Not sure what the money looks like to get these either produced or exported here but clearly its not real viable due to its very limited market - me.

I plan to post some or all of my brake build up soon as I am getting towards putting it all back together as we speak. Basically I just need to finish the plumbing and it should be ready to go in. At the rate its going that could be 2015 but I hope to be back driving the thing in a few weeks.
