I'm running 1" BORA spacers on the rear of my truck to match the front wheel spacing of the maxtrac lift.

My problem is this past rotation the tire shop snapped one of the studs off and I need to replace it. I was hoping to purchase it first before installing it however after 2 visits to part stores that were less than helpful I'm no where closer than if i had looked at all.

Anything know the correct stud needed?

It's a M14x1.5 or 1.75 but how much shoulder length is needed.

Thanks for any input.

I would be concerned about pressing the snapped stud out and the hole not being tight enough for the new stud allowing it to spin. Might contact Bora and ask their opinion, since they are the manufacturer.

I’d get in touch with MST and see if they even recommend changing the studs out. Even if you get the proper shoulder height and knurl, the spacer might not reliably hold the new stud with how mechanically soft 6061 is.

if the tire shop snapped off the stud, and a replacement stud cant be bought at the autoparts, then there is a certain tire shop that owes you a new spacer...

tell the the torque specs say only on "ugga dugga" not two...
