★ Essential replacement component for wheel hubs. Note: WWII Dodge vehicles used left-hand thread studs on the left-hand side and right-hand thread studs on the right-hand side of the vehicle.
Installation notes
Important: this is a right-hand thread stud for the right-hand side (passenger side) of the vehicle. The left-hand side (driver's side) requires left-hand thread studs (LH thread). Ensure you use the correct thread direction to prevent damage to the thread. Installation requires pressing out old studs and pressing in new ones with the knurled section firmly into the hub.
Compatibility
Only suitable for right-hand thread wheel nut set on the right-hand side of the vehicle. NOT interchangeable with left-hand thread studs (LH thread) used on the left-hand side. This difference in thread direction was standard on WWII and post-war Dodge military vehicles.
Historical context
Dodge applied the system of different thread directions from the 1930s until the early 1970s: left-hand thread studs on the left-hand side and right-hand thread studs on the right-hand side. This was believed to prevent wheel nuts from loosening whilst driving.
