Sorry Corky,
International Scouts also had left and right hand lug nuts.
I had a wheel come off due to the lug nuts being put on by
someone that didn't know this. Felt they might be stripped
so they didn't tighten them any further.
Was a wild turn when the passenger side front tire came off!
I pounded out the studs on the passenger side and put the
normal studs all around.
