View Full Version : threaded sleeves for lug bolts to mount wheel covers

I'm looking for the threaded sleeves that screw on the lug bolts to secure the wheel covers to the wheels. These are on my 1998 Gulfstream Scenic Cruiser with 22.5 wheels. I just put 6 new Toyo tires on, and during the dismounting process, the techs found that several of the sleeves were stripped out. Does anyone know of the part # or a website that has the exact ones?

Looks like these sleeves are called 'right hand stud extenders' and 'left hand stud extenders'. Jam nuts are what fits on the outside threads of them. I'm still looking for a way to order these online, through Gulfstream, or anywhere I can find them.

What chassis is it built on?

You should be able to get them from the chassis builder whether it is Freightliner or Spartan shops, they would carry them.

Thanks for the replies!
It is on a Spartan chassis, and I have found that Dicor supplied the wheel coverings and parts. I was planning on ordering them online, thru their catalog service, but it won't let me order everything I need, so a phone call is in order to get what I need.

I'm not real happy with the price for the parts ( $20.00 apiece for the stud extenders, $10.50 for jam nuts), but I'm tired of looking elsewhere, and want to get the wheel covers back on, so will bite the bullet and get them through Dicor!
