I am having trouble finding new left hand nuts for wolfrace wheels. 5 required for drivers side rear, clamping on to 11ins drum. Or change the wheel studs for right hand threads. any one know where I can get any of these? many thanks.

I would change the studs personally.

I did this. Bit of heat, tap them out, new ones in. Easy-peasy - lots of nuts choice now

Dont do enough miles between maintenance to lose any so far.

its a splined rear axle stud in 7/16 of an inch UNF I think.

if you car has been Uprated or is a post 73 or massive HP engine car or has a sure grip as standard it may have 1/2 inch studs.

easy to check.

if you have a scrap nut knock one out

only get long ones if you need them or are using nuts with no cap.

if using sleaved nuts make sure the tube doesn't bottom out on the hub before the wheel is clamped

if using capped nuts make sure the nut has enough length and clamps wheel before end of stud hits end of cap

disk brake hub studs for the front are different in the splined shank area

mighty cheap

I'd go

Raybestos
wagner
dorman

in preference

but they all probably come out of the same factory
