Hi guys, I mostly lurk here but have been around for years. Quick question for you all - what size wheel studs are used on a 12 bolt with the standard 6 lug axles (72 Blazer)? I'm at work and need to order some wheel studs for the new Yukon axles.

More details for those that are interested, I'm finally getting around to re gearing from 3.08 to 4.11 after having had my 72 for about 7 years. I ordered up the complete works from Randy's: Yukon 4.11 gears, Yukon Axles (rear), and an Ected for the rear (front is going to stay open). I'm going 4.11 with my 35's because I do actually drive this thing on the freeway at 80 MPH and it has an SM 465. I had an 80 blazer with 35's and the same tranny but with 4.56 gears so have already been down the 3500 RPM on the freeway route and I didn't find it enjoyable :)
 
Factory stud diameter is 7/16" but there are many different knurl sizes and lengths so you need to order the studs vehicle specific.
 
Argh, you should have checked the for sale section. I've had a whole set for years now trying to give them away. Oh well.
 
Didn't even occur to me that someone would be selling a set of wheel studs. I'll have to start checking in there for everything :)
