Hi one and all , could someone please tell me what the thread size , and pattern of a wheel stud is . I have a damaged stud on my spare wheel carrier . All it needs to put it right is run a die down it . Before I can get a die , I would like to know the thread ! many thanks . Jim :)

G'day I just Googled it and I found: bolt pattern = 5 x 6.5" (165mm), stud size = 16 x 1.5.
I hope this helps.
Anyone else know anything different?

Defender or Disco ? As they are different diameters - 16mm & 14mm IIRC.

Seeing this is in the 90 110 130 Defender COunty thread, it is reasonable to assume that this is what it is for - and they are all the same, from the last of Series 2a to the last Defender - 16x1.5 as suggested, unless I am misremembering.

16mm up to RRC & Disco 1 and Defender
14mm thereafter

Many thanks for your replies , I know that the stud size has been the same since the 2a , including RRC , and Disco 1 . So it is a 16mmX 1.5 mm Die that I have to get hold of . It should only take a few minutes to run it down the thread to bring it back to being good ! So once again many thanks . Jim :)

New 2019 Defender or whatever, will probably be 12mm to match hilux. Or is that Hyundai?

I can remember reading something about this a while back . I can't see the thinking behind this , but the people that do the designing seem to think it's a good idea . The original stud pattern was the same a Jeep . Jim...
