Hey everyone I was looking for some help with locating a special lug nut. If you read my Sig. you will find I have a dually conversion on my truck, I bought the kit from a friend as well as some Alcoa wheels. The wheels came with 5/8 inch conical seat duplex lug nuts. Recently I went to the tire store to get a flat fixed, while fixing the tire one of the lug nuts was mysteriously lost leaving me one short. I have searched on the internet and talked to every company without and success. I was hoping someone on here might know where I can find one of these lug nuts...

--The dimensions are ~1 5/8inch tall, 5/8inch fine threads, and it's ouside diameter is a 1inch hex.
--Again this is a chrome conical seat duplex nut without a shank and it fits together with a swivel nut on the stud.
--The obvious solution I know would be to contact the maker of the conversion kit or Alcoa, but since I bought the conversion second hand I have no idea who made it, and Alcoa tells me they have never heard of a nut with those dimensions, and it's not made by them.


Thank you guys so much for the help, I am getting tired of driving around showing my stud off:icon_mad:

I also have a dually conversion on my '95. I ran into the same problem. I had to go back to Arrowcraft the people who made my conversion. The adaptors and hubs are 5/8 studs while the stock studs are 9/16. I bought my lug nuts from them because I could not find them anywhere else. They are 5/8, with swivel washers and a 1 1/8 outside measurement. Your lug nuts are different but here's ArrowCraft e-mail if they could have been the source of the original conversion.

Arrowcraft - Dual Wheel Conversions

They would not sell me any lug nuts until I provided the "code" off one of the ones still on my truck. They said they're afraid of using their products on inferior equipment and any liabiliteis that might occur???????

Hey thanks so much for the response, I have been looking everywhere for these nuts and no one knew what I was talking about, so I will try them and see what they have to say.

Thanks again, Kevin

Well no luck at Arrowcraft, Does no one know where I can find this lug nut, and why is it ONLY ON MY TRUCK. Sorry I'm a little frustrated. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am out of ideas and pi**ed off.
