hi everyone,


I have the wheels shown in the attachment on my 1988 4x4 Pickup. The previous owner just used some crappy random lug nuts on them so I want to make sure I get the correct ones. Does anyone know the part number for the lugs that match these specific wheels? Or can someone send a link to the correct OEM Toyota lug nuts on fleabay or toyotapartseast or something? I've searched high and low and can't find them. I know you need to use the correct style lugs or you can damage things.


thanks!

If I recall the Toyota ones are @ $ 6.00 each I am sure they can be bought cheaper but $144.00 plus tax or shipping is quite expensive.

They are short shank lug nuts with washers M12x1.5 I got a bunch local I ordered some from Summit racing.

If you need a Part # Napa Chrome # NOE6413391 List $3.66

Napa Black # NOE64115030 List 6.86

Thanks for the info. Do you have the original Toyota part number by any chance? Just want to compare. I have never seen ones with a washer before? That's odd. Does the washer go on before you put the wheel on or after?

most of the lug nuts I see on fleabay that supposedly fit the 1988 pickup say "mag seat" base, where the napa ones you specified say "perpendicular" as the seat type. are these the same? can I use the "mag seat" ones or do they have to be "perpendicular seat" with the washers for the specific wheels shown in my photo?

The washers go on the outside between the nut and wheel.

It is possible different manufactures use different names

Toyota # 90942-01077

This style lug nut was used on several Toyota vehicles over the years and knowing Toyota can be had under several part numbers

They also fit the Mid eighties Celica`s

yes, you want the lugs that are for alloys - they have a washer on them and IIRC the washer is pressed on/stuck on the nut so no worries about losing the washer. the part number wyoming9 posted looks just like the nuts I had on my truck with those same sr5 alloy wheels.

After a few years of use it is possible the shank to washer fit gets a little loose. A few years to me seems to get longer all the time 1999 was a few years ago.

Then it also depends on how many times the lug nuts are removed it seems mine are always coming off for some reason or other.

thanks for the helpful replies. so it seems like the 12 x 1.5 short shank mag seat ones on ebay (item #181161975377) are correct as well. I typically try to use OEM for most everything on my cars, but these are like 1/6th of the price! my only concern is that maybe they are made of crappy metal and will fuse themselves to the studs and cost me major money down the road. and my understanding is that antisieze should not be used on lug nuts.

I beg to differ my Lug nuts get antiseize every time they come off also around the hub.

Pretty much I use it on anything that does not get lock tite.

Spark plugs fuel line fittings

Even the shanks of the lug nuts going into the alloy wheel .

I like getting things apart.

It seems every once in a while I will hear of someone warned if you anti-seize the lug nuts your wheels will fall off.

When I ask the person the only answer I ever Get " Is I read it some place or some one told them.

I even Anti-seize the nuts on my Warn Hubs

Anti-seize and proper torque I've never had a wheel fall off

While I've got nothing against anti-seize on lug nuts, I wouldn't think it would be all that necessary. Anti-seize has its greatest benefit when dealing with steel threads interfacing with aluminum threads, such as spark plugs in an aluminum head. Lug nuts are steel screwing onto steel lug bolts. As long as you don't over torque them, seizing is very unlikely. The more important thing is to keep the gorillas at Tires-are-Us from tightening the nuts with their 200 ft-lb air impact wrench. Torque spec for Toyota wheels is 75-80 ft-lbs, which is a quite a bit lower than most tire shops are used to. You have to be sure to tell them the correct torque ahead of time and be ready to show them a manual page to prove it.
