Default 2005 1500 wheel Studs?

Does anyone know what the wheel stud size is for a Rumble Bee? I need the knurl size for front and rear. I would rather buy/make long studs before I remove the factory parts. I don’t want to take one of the factory studs out to measure it before I do the job but it might come to that. Just call me lazy. I have tried to find factory studs but no dice.

Thanx
Matthew

The thread is 9/16-18. By knurl, I assume you really mean spline, since the studs have a spline that engages into the hubs. Sorry, but I don't know the dimensional size of the splines. Have you gone to a dealership and ordered "1" stud to measure? They may even have one in stock.

I would be concerned about the Rockwell hardness of the studs as well as the specific material they are made from. Don't want your weels to come flying off.

Yes, that is exactly what I mean. I have gone to the dealership and tried to buy a stud. I had to order one if you can believe that. I will measure that when it comes in. I was hoping that a manufacturer such as ARP, B&B, or Moroso made a 3” replacement stud for this application but I am pretty sure they don’t. I will most likely have to either retro a 5/8” stock car stud to the hub, or manufacture a 9/16” stud my self. Both of these things I have done before for other applications.

Thanx for the input.
Matthew
