Default 95 Dakota - Solid Lug Nuts - Where to Buy

Hello,

Trying to look for solid lug nuts for my 95 Dakota 5.2L. I have the two pieces ones which cracked in half and seized on. However none of the descriptions are very clear. I don't want to buy another set and find out it's the same crap.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

They'll be straight acorn nuts, no cap, most likely.

1/2-20 thread.

One such is the Dorman 97823.1 .

They also have an acorn nut that LOOKS one piece, but I won't swear to it ... Dorman 97822.1 .

You can go to DormanProducts.COM and search for your year Dodge Dakota Wheel Nut and find all their part numbers; they have "Kit of 20" for a 1988 also available, but you'll need a Kit of 24 for a 95. Dunno if they have that or not; I just automatically search for my year.

Those should give you a few starting numbers to Google or give to the local parts counter person.

Thanks very much. I appreciate that! I'll check out those numbers. I don't want to drill out this bolt and have to do it again

The same lug nuts can be had with different part numbers; hit DormanProducts.COM to get all of the possibilities before you hit up the parts counter.
