Factory Comanche D44 - Does anyone know the wheel stud specs?

[MYE Jeep]

Hey everyone, 

 

I'm at a bit of a loss right now trying to figure out the specs of the wheel studs for a factory Comanche Dana 44 rear end, I've tried a few different studs now, and they all seem to be slightly bigger diameter, and have longer splines than the ones that came out of it. 

 

If anyone knows where I can find the studs that fit, I would really appreciate it. Additionally Id like to find something a tiny bit longer than the factory studs so that I can safely mount the wheel spacers on my truck. The studs on the spacers are long enough, but the factory studs aren't quite long enough to get the nut on as much as I would like.

 

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

It looks like the part number for the stud on the left should be either

83503053

83503066

according to Crown Automotive, but I can't find any specs on knurl diameter.

Yeah those part numbers are right depending on the year. If you specifically need the knurl dia. I would probably just call Crown (800-343-9666)

So after grabbing a handful of different sizes from NAPA and 2 hours worth of driving later I found a stud that works pretty well.

It's not absolutely perfect, but they pressed in well and they are much longer than the factory ones, and still clear inside of the wheel spacers.

 

Here's the part I ended up grabbing

1/2-20 Serrated Wheel Stud - .618 In. Knurl, 1-13/16 In. Length

P/n: NOE 6412782

 

Fits the factory Dana 44 rear end, the only thing I wish it had was a slightly longer base length as it doesn't come all the way through the axle hole, but close enough for me to be very happy with it.
