So I purchase a 71 "A" body, pick up a nice set of OEM Mopar Rally wheels with new tires and lug nuts. Put 2 on the front....no problem, then jack up the rear, pop the dog dish hubcaps and find 4" studs.....not good. So to try to see if the wheel fits...OK, it fits. Chrome lugs will not fit because of the long studs, but also I find out the lugnut slide over the thinner stud. It turns out to be 7/16 X 20....while the front is 1/2 X 20. So for two days I have been trying different combinations to come up with. So, after all the BS, I pull the axles. Now what info do I need to get new or different axles that are 4.5" big bolt with 1/2" X 20 studs about 1.75 long?

You should be able to pick up some studs from Mancini Racing,Moser,Strange.
Besides having the axles out, I need to know what to look for other than taking the axles and comparing them to others to see what fits. Just installing studs is not the way .... I have already tried that avenue with no luck. With all of the studs looking like and seemingly done in the same Chinese town....to find the perfect fit at this point is almost impossible. I even tried the Dorman site. Mancini on a batting score for items I have needed over the years are batting about .100
