MississippiMan Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 So I've been digging through this forum and found a lot of great information while attempting to fix some broken wheel studs on the rear of my 1990 Winnebago Warrior. After a lot of missteps, I've come to the point where I'm actually about to seat the new studs. However, the area with the splines on the Dorman 610-339 studs I have looks just a little larger than the original studs I have taken off. For people who have used the Dorman Studs; is this normal? Will the studs squeeze into the holes in the hub or does this not seem right? This may be one of those questions that isn't answerable without seeing it up close, but I was just hoping someone else may have had these doubts before installing their new studs. They seem to have worked for others on the forum and I can't see why it would be any different for my camper. They match up to the same toyota original part number.

I doubt they’ll be exactly like factory but should be close. Check with a good caliper, if it’s really close it should work. Old mechanic trick. Put the studs in the freezer overnight then heat the flange before pressing the studs in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Or you could just go with original equipment from Toyota https://www.toyotapartsdeal.com/oem/toyota~bolt~hub~for~rear~axle~90942-02066.html?Make=Toyota&Model=Pickup&Year=1991&Submodel=2+Wheel+Drive&Filter=(d=USA;1=3VZE;4=STD;5=ATM;6=4HC;7=RCB;8=WT;9=HLF;11=EFI;13=IV6;14=T1)&Location=power_train_chassis/rear_axle_shaft_hub,,42611E Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrbus Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 94 Sea Breeze, I put the dorman 610-339 in a few years ago and still have a couple new and old ones, I see no noticeable difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MississippiMan Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Thanks, y'all! I think I'm going to try Fred's advice seeing as I have been sitting on the dorman parts for quite a while and can't return them. The differences between my dormans and originals look very similar jjrbus's photo. I'll let you know how it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V6 Seabreeze 92 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Last year one of my inner wheel went flat, it was the valve stem, too old and leaked. It sheared off two studs. I went to Toyota dealer, with Vin number they matched all parts. Little pricey but peace of mind to have original parts. Photo shoes all part numbers.

Best The aftermarket lug nuts I put on have a poor finish, started rusting quickly. Have yours started to rust?? Tried the nuts that take a special tool to remove first, destroyed them trying to torque to 170 Edited July 27, 2020 by jjrbus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
