Re: wheel stud replacement
I would go to Napa or your favorite parts store. Use that part # C591. Take an old one with you...and match it up. No since buying a bunch if they arent even close.

Re: wheel stud replacement
Dann at Rallye has them as does Dean at DatsunParts.
Sometimes its better to get something you know will work from one of the vendors rather than hunt for a comparable part out in the wild.

Re: wheel stud replacement
What was your method for installing the studs? Did you have to pull your axels and spindles?

Re: wheel stud replacement
You can install the stock length with the axles in the car.
The ones that are + ~1/2 longer can also be installed , but IIRC they one go in with a axle and hole in one "clock....so you need to rotate the axle to find the location with the most room to slip the stud in from the back....longer stud can be installed by drilling a hole in the backing plate.

Re: wheel stud replacement
So the fronts i assume requires calliper and rotor removal?

Re: wheel stud replacement
Correct. The fronts require rotor removal which requires hub removal. If your rotors are rust-bonded on they are hard to get off.

Re: wheel stud replacement
I know that Nissan still has the stock studs available for the rear. I'd guess they have the fronts as well.

Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

Re: wheel stud replacement
FWIW, I replaced my front studs with the rotor on the car. I used an open ended wrench and a rubber mallet to loosen the bolts that hold the rotor to the hub. I removed the front of the hub and pulled old studs out and put new ones in.
Red 1970 1600, 1st roadster for me, wanted one since I was a teen.
