I had ordered some ARP wheel studs from Jegs. But they were backordered and I had no idea when they would be filled.

I sent ProjectJ a note asking him if he could look into this for me as I used my last package of studs on another car a couple weeks ago. I'm installing a new 3rd member in my CMC car and needed the longer studs for it.

The news was not good, But he called and researched and gave me a competitor's part number and suggested I get the studs elsewhere.

Wow!

A vendor pointing me to a competitor in order to get my immediate needs filled.

Nice job ...

Crap.....the wheel studs are backordered AGAIN!?!?!?!?!?




The LAST time I needed them they were backordered.....

Mitch, can you give me the part number/source of the substitute studs?

Thanks,

Summit Racing is ARP-100-7708

Or, GM makes long studs (which I'm running).

GM # 22551491 (from your local dealer, Team Chevrolet, and the usual suspects)

I would have gone with the GM studs, but couldn't get them till early next week.

And I've never been satisfied with Summit like I have with Jegs.

Me either.

You might try ordering them from Team Chevrolet, Scoggin Dickey, etc. You may have the GM stuff by Friday that way. (too late now I know).

Thanks again, Mitch!
