Lug wrench - stupid question?

[DobaMark]

It's been years since I've had an A body, but I've got a 1968 Valiant on the way. I know these small bolt pattern cars used a smaller lug stud than the B bodies. But my question is does the same 3/4" lug wrench as fits a B body work or is the A body lug nut smaller?

Hmmm....not sure. Just go buy a $10-20 four-way and have what you need on hand.

Yup the nut should be the same. Factory open faced steel wheel lug nuts were 3/4".

Thanks, I'll need to have the factory tool to work the jack. But I usually either get a 4 way or a breaker bar and socket for all my cars.

3/4" is correct for the stock lug nuts. If you have those early Cragar wheels, they used an 11/16" wrench size.
