My 30 sedan has the disc wheels and I'm in the process of getting them prepared for powder coating. Took the wheel centers, lug nuts, and Jaxon lugs to a friend for blasting and cleaning. After blasting the Jaxon lugs he noticed cracks in 6 of them. I'm a little concerned in that had I not had them cleaned I would not have known the true condition of them. That being said, I have two things to say;
1. Anybody who has disc wheels may want to inspect their Jaxon lugs at the first opportunity, and
2. Anybody know where I can buy "new" Jaxon lugs ?

An aside to the obvious point here, but I was surprised to see the stampings on the backs of these lugs... a Maltese cross probably representing the manufacturer, a single digit maybe form or mold number and a 6 digit number possibly a date code or source code ? Anybody know anything about them ?

The six digit is the part number. I don't believe the clamps are available new. Probably you will have to find someone with good used ones.

My 30 Parts list says the clamps or Lugs, should be p/n 933526, I actually have 1 of these, and 15 p/n 933518 ? The cracked Lugs are all p/n 933518. Wonder what these are for ?

Thanks JYD and cabboy!

I found 6 of the 933518 Lugs on eBay yesterday. Comparing my 933526 and 933518 Lugs I can't see any differences so I bought them. Will still watch for 933526 Lugs just in case.
