I need the shorter lug bolts for a set of steel wheels. A partial set is ok and condition isn't important. I just need them for a roller so I can mount the wheels and move it around the garage. Cheaper the better. Please PM or mark@markepstein.net
Thanks

I have a coffee can full of them

I'll check... I don't think they went in the last load, but will check
yours for shipping

I think I have some assorted short lugbolts for 914 also. I will check how many if Brant does not have complete sets I can send some and maybe free shipping.

Ok, found them
so something I had not noticed before
13 are short
3 are less short
I haven't owned any bugs, beetles, or VW's other than the 914
so they should have all come from a 914
but still weird that 3 are a bit longer?
makes no sense.
anyone have an opinion or idea
your welcome to them all
I just want to make sure they will work for you

Yea, I've seen different lengths. But These will work fine. I can get away with 3 bolts per wheel. The wheels just have to keep the car off the ground. It won't get driven.
I have alloy wheel bolts and they are too long. They bottom out before they get tight.
A good reminder to keep some short ones with your steel spare.

Most of those are VW bolts. They are too short to work on 914 rear where they have to go thru the rotor then into the hub.

I have a set pulled which you can have for $10 to cover the shipping.
