How do you cut them to ensure the threads are kept clean?

 

[Chryco Psycho]

put a nut on them , trim them with a chop saw or angle grinder , taper the ends at about 20* by hand & thread the nut off , this should remove any remaining debris .

I had a local machine shop cut mine. On mine the knurl sizes were different front to rear, you might want to check yours to see if they are the same/different also. Check the proposed cut length front to rear as well if you want the same amount of net thread protruding from the rotor/axle. There may be differences in the rotor vs axle thicknesses, and the backside recess(s) where the stud head seats.

Thanks guys. All great advice

Last question. Will I need to modify the holes to accept the .675 knurl Vs the .673 knurl? Or will they just press in

 

[Chryco Psycho]

Only .002 difference should be no issue

You won’t have a problem.

What is the reason for 2" studs ?

 

[SFEbody]

Hey Moparleo, good question! The Ridler wheels I am putting on only allow the lug nut to screw on the current studs about 5/16" I read somewhere it needs to be at minimum 1/2"

 

[Chryco Psycho]

1.5 x the diameter in thread engagement minimum

 

[SFEbody]

Thanks Chryco....

 

[Chryco Psycho]

so 1/2 inch studs needs 3/4" engagement to be safe .

What type of lugs do the rims call for ? Acorn, Shoulder ?
