Everything dwight said is true. However, if it has factory steel painted wheels it could have 1 5/16" lugs on the wheels. The bottome of the airbag stud is...

Hi All; Here's the replies, so far, to my question about removing the 12V charging system. 1. Rip it out by it's roots, it's nothing but trouble 2. Not really...
Ajay, The alternator does not need 12V to exite it.I was having charging problems with mine ,and isolated the alt from the system,excited the field with 24V...
