does anyone know the part number or where to get 1/2" front wheel studs for the 6 lug front axles instead of the crappy 7/16" studs? My girlfriends truck is running 36" super swampers and is snapping the 7/16" studs like nothing. I know for a fact that it is possible because i have the same exact truck as her (same year and model, both 1/2 tons) and have the six lug front axle, and mine is running 1/2" ARP hardened wheel studs, i just dont know where to get em. any help is greatly appreciated. thank you

Do a google search. I just found about 6 different sources, you will have to put in your info on your truck and see which one's you want.

i cant say for sure what stud size my buddy has but before i gave him a set of ¾ ton axles he had ½ ton on his k5 with 36" and after thoses got slashed he put on 38s" and those 38" got put on his 89 k1500 once he got the ¾ ton axles under the k5. didnt have a problem with studs, matter of fact he was mudding with 4 lugs on the ¾ ton with 44" for some odd reason
