|
|
Hello, the rebuild of my Austin Devon is progressing slowly.
i am missing a set of wheel nuts, so as a result one stud out of the four on each wheel is rather rusted and pitted. i will purchase the nuts from earlparts, or manufacter my own. if i have to i can produce my own wheel studs as well, but befor i do that, would these ones work?

P.S. before anyone gets the shivers about me producing critical parts, i do have a bit of machining background, i have built 3 running steam engines, 2 stirling cycle engines, as well as a 2-cycle compression-ignition engine, i also have a small foundry capable of pouring about 2-ish pounds of brass and about 4 pounds of aluminum. ( if anyone needs "unobtainium" parts )
thank you for any and all help! |

I purchased the wheel studs and they arrived the other day. They are exactly what i was looking for! Working on taking out the old ones and poping in the new . I also purchased a NOS head gasket from this ebay seller for $26 plus shipping, all said and done it was $53, or 33 pound. |
