QUICK ?stion - STUDS
Can you get a stud with different diameters to adapt to different axle/wheel combination? What I mean is, I have a ford 9" /w ford axles. The studs are of a greater diameter. Do they sell studs of that diameter at the base but a smaller diameter @ the lug spots? I'm almost about to downscale these suckers on the lathe. But please post a solution. I don't wanna do that!

Not really....
They sell lots of different sorts of studs, and you can go through the Dorman catalog or something and maybe come up with what you need, by sheer luck; but there aren't alot of varieties of "swap" lugs, with specific combinations of mis-matched stock sizes like that.
Best thing to do, is to re-drill the axle, with the holes you need to fit the lugs that you need to use, in the wheel pattern that fits the wheels you want to use.
