I have new axles going in my car and I need to buy some 7/16 press in studs. In summit they have alot them but the knurl dia differ. How can i figure out which ones to buy ?
Take an axle to the auto parts store and get the right studs. Forget Summit and get them local. You probably need a 610-186 stud. which is the 7/16 stud that was used in the early Camaros and Chevelles.
Do you know the original knurl size of the studs that came out? If so, get some new ones that are slightly larger for a tight fit. One thing I don't understand is....why 7/16 studs? I would use 1/2" 7/16 is so tiny (all C2 and C3 vettes have them and I upgraded to 1/2" because they are that iffy)

These are bran new axles.7/16 is close to the stock 12mm studs and they have been holding fine. I dont need 1/2 studs I think its overkill for my car i'm only put down 400hp at the crank and plus I dont think they would fit my cragar ss/t rims anyway.
