2013 Alpine 3600 Stud Size

Does the 7k Dexter axle use 1/2" or 9/16" wheel studs?
I am doing a disc brake conversion and the customer is unable to get this information.

Titan Guy, Howdy;

Here's a link to Dexter's site,
http://www.dexteraxle.com/home_
You should be able to find your answer there.

Stud size

Won't find it on Dexter's web site unless you have the axle serial#. Dexter makes 7k axles with 1/2", 9/16" & 5/8" studs.

Might be easier to just remove a lug nut and measure the diameter of the stud. The thread diameter is the stud size.

All of my lug nuts are stamped with the size on one of the faces of the lug.

So, ... then, get your ser.#'s ... an then gather the parts ... seems easy enough.
The ser. #s are on the tag that girdles the axles.

Sorry I wasn't clear. I am in Oklahoma, I am the installer, and the Alpine is in Texas. The owner is not physically able to get under the trailer. I was hoping someone knew the stud size so I didn't have to haul a 9/16" & 1/2" disc system to Texas.

Titan Guy, Howdy;

Knowing particulars is helpful when attempting to help someone.
The more the helpee provides, the better the helpers can help.

How about asking your helpee if they have somone that would
be willing to do the crawling for them or try to get the information
from Keystone by using the VIN number ... Or tote both sets down
and return the un- used one when you get back after doing the swap...

There are more than one way to skin a cat ...
