Hi all,

I need to buy some wheel stud adaptors (part no 592926) that position the wheel step on the front wheels of a 101.

Any ideas on who might sell them?

I will try Anthony at British 4wd Imports tomorrow but I doubt he will have any.

Thanks

Garry

On the expensive side though :o May be able to get some machined up locally cheaper than that.

I welded two nuts together back to back with a stud tacked inside the outer nut.
Worked for me and its not a critical component as only holdind the step.

The other answer is to grind some flat spots in the spokes of those fancy new wheels:p:p:p:p:p

Hmmm - quite expensive - homemade is looking good

Hmmm - don't like that idea at all :mad: - but as these wheels are made specifically made for the 101 you would think they would have taken that into account. I might suggest it to the makers.
