Front Drum Lugs

Post by pcpat »

I have a 31 AA which on the left (Drivers) side has one lug (stud) missing and one lug stripped. Is there anything special about these Lugs? I see in all Model A Parts places they have Lugs and lug nuts for the rear wheels, but they only sell Lug Nuts for the front wheels. My truck is far from being drive-able, but I plan on working on the tires and brakes next and was wondering why nobody sell front lug studs for the Model A?

probably hasnt been a demand for them - ford wasnt the only one using those same studs and think of the millions that were in parts houses. They were probably used up until the 40-50's on big trucks.

dont forget the drivers side should have left handed lugs.

from a march 1934 parts price list.
AA-1107-D bolt (front hub) R.H. thread 1930-31
AA-1108-D bolt (front hub) L.H. thread 1930-31
both changed to a BB- part number for 1932-35, but the dimensions are different.

Any idea on where they can be found? Or should I be looking for a replacement Left front Drum?

Thanks for the Replies. One of the forum members in my local area set me up with a replacement front drum.
