Wheel machining help please.
Wheel machining help please. Hello. I just built a 9" for my car and ordered the 5/8 wheel stud package thinking I would get the fully threaded studs and I could use a normal 60° seat lugnut Instead I recieved the shoulder stud with the big spacers and nuts which I am happy with but have to have my wheels machined to accept those spacers.
I was wondering if anyone had any ecperience with something like this. I just want to purchase some sort of arbor 1 1/4" or 1 5/16" to macine my own flat seats seeing every machine shop around here wont touch it cause there scared.
Can some one please help me.

Thanks for the reply. I couldn't use conicle nuts because the studs I received were the big race style studs with the 11/16" shoulders with spacers.
I rented a valve spring seat tool from the local machine shop and made my own jig today and machined them myself. Cost me less than 40 bucks and it looks great.
You can read my step by step writeup in the advanced engineering department under the same thread title if you care too.
