Started working on replacing the stock mini truck knuckle studs on my 40 with these:

The kit does not come with new cone washers. The new nuts are lock nuts, so no lock washers are needed. I was a little surprised with the length of the studs. I thought they would be longer than the stock studs. They are a little bit longer, as you can see, but I would have liked at least a 1/4" more thread. The hysteer arms I have on my 40 are really thick, so more stud length would be good. But, remember woody's pics of rebuilding the knuckles? That is for me now, because my knuckles do need rebuilding.
