So I am in the middle of replacing a stripped wheel stud. It's one of the 'left hand' threaded studs. I stripped it when putting the wheel back on after replacing the rear shocks. Old and just wore out, I guess.
Anyhow, I figured it was as good a time as any to switch it over to RH thread. I ordered what I thought to be correct RH stud (I have 9" rear drums): Dorman part #610-186.
I get the old stud out no problem and when I compare the little ridges to the replacement stud, they look way off. Am I seeing things? Did I order the wrong part? If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd certainly appreciate it.
Sorry in advance for the blurry pic.
