Subject:Rear stud swap... 88 studs into 79 bus?
From:Greg Potts

Hi Volks,

Is it possible to put the studs from a 1988 Vanagon GL fit into a 1979
Bus? Two of the studs on the westfakia's D/S rear wheel have messed  up
threads and there are 10 perfect studs available on my 88 Vanagon GL
"Parts-mobile". If they fit then I can do the swap today, otherwise I
will have to wait until I can get some from a FLAPS tomorrow.

Happy trails,
