MBL Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Howdy. Tim here. I had what I think may be a simple question. On the 1937 Olds, did the car have lug nuts or lug bolts? Was it different from the back or front of the car? Thanks for any info you can provide! Tim MBL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GARY F Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 My l-37 touring sedan has lug nuts. Did you just get this car or are you going to get it? Is it an 8cyl. or 6. Mine is an 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is an 8. Just curious, are your lug nuts reverse thread on the left side of the car? Pontiac did that, and I often wonder if any other GM divisions did.

GARY F Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 I took the front wheels off a year ago plus the whole front end to work on the motor.. I don't remember but I will go out to my garage tomorrow and check. when you get old like me and can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloo, my `36 Buick, lugs are lug bolts all RH, but the left front spindle nut is LH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GARY F Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Bloo, I just checked the lug nuts on my 37 Olds. On the left side you tighten the nuts by turning left, counter clockwise like my two Pontiacs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBL Posted December 24, 2019 Author Share Posted December 24, 2019 Thanks for the replies! It's actually for a friend's car. I don't know much about it. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
