Hello Gents,
I am going to go to aluminum hubs on my GT6+. Your previous dialog was this is 
a good thing and the 6lb savings on the front of the nose heavy car is worth 
it. Ok  - now the question is wheel studs. The car currently is set up with 
7/16" studs with 20 threads per inch on 3 3/4 in centers. This is true for the 
rear as well and also coincides  with my Super 7 front hubs so I can share 
wheels. Is this the good set up?
Thanks for your advice.
Also this car was set up with the original front suspension, except it has the 
lower A arms boxed and the top of the towers are welded to the roll cage that 
extends to the front of the car. The vertical link, steering arms, spindle, 
bearings, ball joints are all original except the bushes are urethane. So the 
jist of it is that the front suspension seems fairly stock. Is this the way to 
go?
Any and all advice would be appreciated.
Bill B
