O.K. I'm getting ready to do the 5 lug conversion on YellowDog. I have a 68 SC front end and I am going to re-drill the rear hubs. The question is what do you that have done this recommend; press in studs or bolts? If studs, where did you source them and if bolts, how long? I have a set of BBS style wheels that came off a 68 SC 'I think'. Also if I go with studs, will I need to machine a 'flat' on the back side of the hub so they seat?
