wheel studs

Ok so im putting a 3:73 posi rear in my 87 iroc from my 83 parts car. So i want to put in longer wheel studs, dont want it to be thicker, i want it to fit in stock axles but be like 3inches long or something. What studs do i need and how do i take my axles out. All help is appreciated.

Re: wheel studs

To provide an idea, OE studs are 12mm x 1.5 right hand thread. The following link will detail axle removal:

You might consider taking a peek at the 10-Bolt FAQ as well.
