wood wheel hub bolts?

[Guest pipeweld]

rebuilding wood spoke wheels on 27 buick. where can I get the hub bolts and nuts . looks like I need 44 total.

[Mark Shaw]

The fastest and most reliable solution is to make your own out of carriage bolts. If you want grade 8 hub bolts, you can machine them from hex head bolts . If you are restoring a show car, the high domed heads can be built up with welding and machined or ground to match the original shape.

The lug bolts that go through the fellow are a different matter.

[Dwight Romberger]

I am not sure if these are what Mark is talking about, but Restoration Supply has high domed head wheel bolts on page 40 of their catalog. I bought some when I rebuilt my Model T wheels.

Unless you have 4 in your pocket, I think you need 48?

[critterpainter]

Some Buicks (1925 Standard for one) can use a Ford T wheel bolt. Many suppliers have them and if you want something stronger than original then ask for the ones made by RV Anderson. Do stake the nuts on after installing.

I have 60 but I didn't want to run the threads.what was price on bolts you found?

[Dwight Romberger]

If you can use 3/8" or 7/16" Model T bolts critterpainter suggested, the prices from Snyders Model T Parts are as follows:

The ones from Restoration Supply are from $14-17 each.

If have purchased Model T parts from Snyders, Langs and Mac's with excellent results.

Restoration Supply has those "can't get them anywhere parts" and excellent quality products.

I have seen them called "wagon bolts" as opposed to carriage bolts. I found a whole box of them in an old hardware store some years ago.
