These are the lug nuts that came with my Alcoas:

One is missing from the set, one has no end cap and 2 others have damaged thread (could be fixed with a tap).
If anyone has some looking for a good home, I'm interested. Min. 5, prefer 10, if possible.

Also, I need 2 cup holder inserts for the 92 - 96 centree console box:

Let me know what you have.

I have the cup holders but you'd have to buy the whole console.

I think that last quote was for Stan.

As for the lugs - let me dig tonight & see what I can find for you. I know I have a couple bins full of lug nuts and many have come off broncos with alcoas. I've just gotta check length's etc. I'll snap some pics & probably do one with a ruler there. It'll be your job to convert to that funky old metric system ;)

As for price - we'll see how many I have, what you want & then we'll pick something. Shipping we can figure out. Been a while since I sent you stuff, but last time I think USPS was the nest rate. We'll get to that part.

It was, sorry. As for the rest, I'm good with that. ;)

Here's what I've got. 2nd stack from left = the ones I think are like yours, so the 2nd pic is closer with a measurement. Looks like +/-1.4" overall, but I can put a caliper on them for true length if you want. I've got 8 of those.

The middle stack (7 of um) in the top pic is a very similar style, but they are a bit taller. I can measure those if you'd like too.

The set on the right is longest and I have 25 if you'd want all matchy matchy. Some have a lot of "patina" on them though. I personally like the open end ones like I have in the yellow bins at upper left.

I BELIEVE the taper is the same on all of these sets I have. I haven't looked closely so as to verify though

Same as yours - tan from my 96. Just realized you’re in Australia. Shipping might be speedy for the whole thing but I can check rates for you.

Send me a pm with email address and I’ll get you some photos.

OK. This is what I have:
Hex length 3/4":

Closed and open end basically identical, apart from the obvious:
P1010029.JPG
P1010030.JPG
If those open end ones are the same hex length, I'd be happy to rid you of a full set (20) + 5 for spares. Personally, I'd prefer the open ended ones, too, as I will go to longer studs once the rego bit is out of the way.
Let me know.

Where's you get a real ruler down there?!? :shock: :lol:

I'll get more lengths and pics today. The long ones on the far right are closed top. The ones in the yellow bins are open but much shorter. I have a couple random open ones like you have the pic of.

So here's what I've got.

Originally I thought you had these:
Lugs 8.jpg

But now I'm thinking it's these:
Lugs 7.jpg

I also have 2 of those open top ones you have:

I've also got a single, closed top version like those last ones above if you'd want that.

Here are my other styles though:

These are the long ones that were on the far right in my 1st pic from yesterday:
Lugs 5.jpg
Lugs 5a.jpg

Another closed style. 2nd from right in 1st pic - have 6 of um.
Lugs 6.jpg

Then these are the open ones. I'm thinking the bigger version of these is what I'd prefer to keep on hand/have around out of any of these.

Rod - any further thoughts on these & what you'd want if any? Let me know & we can start looking at shipping costs.

Whenever you have time, I'm in no hurry, as we are leaving for O/S next week.

Not a problem. I figured you were distracted with more fun stuff like actually driving your truck and workin out the little kinks.

PM me the shipping address again & I'll have a look at what may work best. If I remember right USPS was the best price wise last time, but may not be awesome reliability wise.

Either way, these will fit in a pretty small box, so aside from the long trip & the usual badgering due to that, shipping shouldn't be too bad. I'll find a box and get a weight & we can start playin with prices.

PM'd you my address. Like I said, no hurry, whatever fits in with your shedule. Actually, between work and getting stuff done at home, I HAVE been driving my truck, to work and back, errands, etc. It has some small issues, but I'm gradually getting on top of them. It's nice to drive it again, though, I've missed the ol' girl. The extra power is good, too, I can light up the tyres from a standing start too easily, I have to be carefull not to attract the local plodders.
