Brian, Stock is 34.5mm long, this is correct for the rear studs of a Syncro and 2WD. Syncro 16s had 41mm long studs at the rear. This measurement is from the start of the shank of the stud to the end of the threads. I stock 46mm long studs and 53mm long studs. The 46mm are $20 CAD / $14.50 USD for a set of five and the 53mm long studs are $25 CAD / $18.25 for a set of five.

-----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com]On Behalf Of Brian T. Sent: June 25, 2004 3:07 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: 2 wheel drive rear wheel stud length
I was wondering if anyone out in Vanagon land had the specs for the stock rear wheel lugs on a 2 wheel drive vanagon? I am particularly interested in overall length I need to come up with a longer than stock set to get the correct 8 + turns on my new wheels. Ronal's setup only gives you 5.5 turns per nut and I don't feel too comfy with that. Thanks, Brian |
