The Stub axles that bolt onto it.

This is the drawing that was used by the machinist to modify them to suit a Ford hub.

Just had to mill slightly larger flats on the hub for the studs to seat on. Was quite a straight forward operation. No changes to rotors or callipers needed. Steve.
That is handy to know Steve , I also want to change to ford stud pattern and dont want to decrease track .
Did you use ARP-100-7703 studs , can seem to find any info on shoulder sizes anywhere.
Hi there the wheel studs were Moroso 46490 .685 spline (shoulder) diameter. They are 3 inches long but can be cut to size. Available from Jegs in the US . They also give the hole size for the spline. Regards Steve.

Old post, but interested if hotrodsteve has any input on the stud change, how it’s holding up?
