My Expedition was built 01/00. How do I know what size wheel studs it has?
Take a lug nut off and look?
Well that would be easy. Except the PO put on some horrible wheels that have those splined Gorilla lug nuts on it. And I just realized that the lug key that was in the glove box when I was looking at buying is gone. So I can't take a lug nut off- and can't change the tire should I get a flat.
