I am rebuilding a thing. The previous owner put cheap studs in the drums and now I have lug nut issues. I want to drill them out and use standard bug lugs (larger than thing lugs). Anybody done this? Any problems?

That, or change brake drums. You can also use adapters. Only post your thread in one forum ---

The lug bolts on my VW Thing aren't any different than bug lug bolts.
