Anyone know where I can get 3/8 unf longer wheel studs 6mm, 8mm or  longer someone out there must be able to help me, will Mini or Morris Minor 3/8 unf fit or is there a reason they will not

As I have bought longer bolts already I hope to avoid buy  12 mm studs then more 12 mm bolts,
Cheers Hugh

Thanks mate but what they charge for them is too much for me I do not think that are go value.

But thanks for reminding me I had put it in my other thread :)

Cheers Hugh

3/8' is mini/metro size- and given that mini people like spacers so much any mini specialist will have a selection of lengths...metro wheels have a huge offset so if you stick metro pepperpots or cross-spokes on a mini you need fat spacers and hence looooong studs, all the mini places do them.

Some random web searches-

As replied on your previous thread, no Minis and Metro use a 7/16 spline we need 1/2 inch.

Thanks

I think that after a telephone chat with Marcus I am hoping we have found a fix for my wheel stud problem in fact we discussed 4 or 5 ways of over coming any problems which should solve my problem. My simple problem is that since fitting my CV conversion my wheels on the inside rubbing on one small area of  the dust shields on the dampers. Dom and I mocked up th e idea that Marcus gave me it worked and solves my problem. :)

Cheers to you Marcus
Many thanks to those who also gave me some good advise.
