Lug Nuts For Nbs 1/2 Ton 4x4s


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am looking to replace the lug nuts and the black plastic screw-on caps on my truck (see sig) with Chrome lug nuts. They will look better and I have already lost 2 of the plastic caps. My question: Does anybody know the thread size or any part number info on these? Any suggestions where to get them?

 

Thanks in advance.

Gorilla (brand), I have used on all my GM cars. I just changed out the plastic capped ones on my NBS 2007 GMC below. Try Summit racing equipment (summitracing.com) GOR-91147XL, lug nuts, conical seat, bulge, 14mm x 1.50 RH, closed end, chrome plated steel set of 4=$7.39, handling charge $10.95, free shipping. You don't have nuts unless you have Gorilla.

That would be: 14 x 1.5 mm

 

I paid $1 each for the ones I have on my truck from Tire Barn.

 

Hope that helps.

I like that little gmc zozman! Looks nice..I was thinkin about taking off my Z71 badge as well, what do you guys think?

 

Do it. If you are really partial to it go to your local sign shop and have them make you one from a translucent etched material so it's more subtle and classy. I simply shaved mine and couldn't be more happy. It really only tells people you have different shocks anyway.

    • It seems fine because it pulls everything out of a hot engine. I’m not going to worry about a thimble full with 5K oil changes with synthetic oil. Every other oil change is at Honda they pull the plug. I watch them through the process. It turns out going to Honda what amounts to their normal oil change intervals.
    • I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!
    • I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be. 
    • I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!
    • I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.
