Dorman and other suppliers make these. Go to your local parts store or a good hardware store with one of your old studs and you can get ones that will be quite close in dimensions. Slant on, Lou |

Better in what way? They don't take a lot of torque or stress, so I would not assume that anything beyond a standard stud is needed. I found some hardened ones down at the local Ace Hardware in the general repair hardware assortments. |

Yes, high strength is not needed, and the parts/hdware store ones are usually grade 8 anyway. Lou |

McMaster Carr has them with allen wrench drive. Probably slightly more convenient to install/remove. |

Ooo, I need to get those. I assume those have coarse on one end and fine on the other... Lou |

im thinking more corrosion resistant, less likley to get stuck and break off, etchttp://www.mcmaster.com/#standard-threaded-rods/=v0cfj5 are these the ones? |

The closest ones with socket head are: 94358A270 A bit spendy at $4 ea, and they might be a tad long, but fine... I don't see the standard automotive studs, surprisingly. Local parts store is your best bet. Should be $1-2 ea. Lou |

i wonder if stainless might help? |

I would not expect so... only marine stainless has any real corrosion resistance for being constantly exposed and a lot of the SS stuff out there is pretty questionable for quality. Stainless is more brittle and prone to break. (And 'brittle' is not the correct mettalurical term... perhaps 'less tough' is the right one.) Galling in the threads is another common problem with stainless. And drilling out the remains of a stainless stud when broken off would be a really nasty exercise; hardened steel studs are bad enough. |
