ABSTRACT:
An adaptor assembly for use with studs used to mount a wheel to a hub of a truck or other vehicle. The adaptor comprises a cylindrically shaped, partially hollow member which is initially screwed onto the wheel stud having one end abutting the hub or brake drum of the vehicle and completely surrounding the protruding wheel stud. The adaptor assembly having a diameter larger than the diameter of the wheel stud and sized to be slightly less in diameter than the corresponding wheel holes. The wheels of the vehicle are placed over these adaptor assemblies mounted on the wheel studs and a spring washer is then placed over each adaptor. Finally, a wheel nut, being screwed onto the exterior threads of each adaptor, is used to force the spring washer against the wheels being mounted to secure the wheels to the hub of the vehicle.
