Do all early stovebolts running their original drivetrain use the same lug nuts? I am needing a few for my 1946. Do all the AK and AD trucks use the same lug nuts?

All use a 7/16-20 (NF) until disc brakes were introduced in 1971 on trucks.

If you're talking AK and AD trucks up to 3/4 ton, then yes, they use the same lug nuts. Size is 7/16 - 20.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Thank you guys for the quick response. Just wanted to make sure before I purchased the wrong lug nuts

Hardware stores that carry NF nuts and bolts are a good source for matching bolts to carry around for testing!
