New Lug Nuts and Wheel Locks

hkguns · Jan 21, 2017

Now I am confused. This is from the 2017 F150 manual and it states 14x1.5mm. Is the 2017 Raptor different than the "regular" 2017 F150?

Some of the internet experts do not realize that ford changed thread pitch. Mustang takes the same nut. Measure your nuts if you do not know what you have. Or, get the wife to

The real confusion is factory vs non factory wheel. There is a difference in the style of nut that seats properly.

Yeah, this is my fault. I didn't pay attention to the forum this was posted in. I am not sure on the lug size for the Gen 2, but I assume it is the same as the regular F150 since the Gen 1 was the same as the other F150's from the same model years. Sorry about that guys.

Fair warning for those considering the lug nuts listed at being 14mm x 1.50. They will not fit. The Raptor requires 14mm x 2.00. If you install those linked above in this thread, they will probably ruin the lug stud threads. I understand that the OP called Gorilla directly, but they are mistaken on this point.

If you want a black lug nut kit that fits, check the link below. They are not locking, but you get the black lug nuts that fit the factory bead lock and other stock rims.

I verified with both Ford and Gorilla that's these are for the Gen 2 stock wheels. I compared them to the ones that came off and they are an exact match.

The correct size for a Gen 2 stock wheel is 14mm x 1.5.

1.5 and 2 is the pitch of the threads. It is the sillymetres between threads. So that means the gen2 is a "fine thread"

For those of us keeping the stock bead lock black wheels, I hated the chrome lugs against the wheel so I put these on and so much better for around $100!

Gorilla part numbers:

(5) 4 packs of the black 61147BCX lug nuts

(1) 4 pack of the black 96641BDX locks

Looks great! On my list now thanks for spending more of my money - trucks not even here yet and accessories are piling up [emoji23]

I'm not sure they have the correct bulge at the bottom of the acorn to fit the factory wheels. They look like they are for aftermarket wheels only, the stockers take a different lug nut.
