[QUOTE="cloud9, post: 15195515, member: 112903"] Gorilla lugs that are like the FRPP nut on the left. Are you sure FRPP didn't just source those from Gorilla? The ones I used on my Boss are here: [url]http://www.summitracing.com/parts/GOR-90087/[/url] I pounded out the OEM studs on my Boss and installed the ARPs after the first few events. I did snap an OEM stud (fortunately in the paddock) Then I used the FRPP hubs that come with the ARP studs when I swapped front hubs (every other season) [url]http://www.americanmuscle.com/frpp-frontwheel-hub-bearing-0514.html[/url] Here's what can happen to OEM 1/2" studs. This was an S197 GT I rented at Chuckwalla a couple years ago while vacationing in Palm Springs. Going through a high G corner I heard a clunk and then a little roughness in the steering wheel. I thought.......hmm might have broke something......better shut it down and jump into the hot pits. This is what I found........ [ATTACH=full]674242[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]674243[/ATTACH] Fortunately the GT350 is using 14mm studs so should hold up........at least for a while. Of course it's also capable of higher Gs and weighs a little more than the S197. [/QUOTE]
