i'm getting some sleeve type lug nuts tapped 1/2" unf left hand thread for the driver side of my 66 fury so i can fit the slotmags i have. seems easier than finding out which of three different sizes of stud i have to order right hand thread for that side. i've had to change studs on a coronet and a d100 before so i thought i'd try a different approach. i'll let you know if it works out.

cheers for the info. all done now. started with 7/16" unf nuts, drilled out to 7/16" then tapped l/h 1/2" unf. i get lug nuts locally for about £1.30 each so now i have the taps it works out cheaper this way. :D
