why won't the 1/2" lugs work? As long as they are conical seat, it should be fine.

Your way overthinkin it....just get a stud for a 87 F350 single wheel truck. The hole is large enough for the larger stud. Just hammer um out, and hammer the new ones in, not a big deal. We have done it numerous times, you just have to get the right stud. But...regardless, you would be fine not changing them too.

Easiest thing to do is mic the knurl on your 1/2 one and have the parts store match it with a 9/16 one. It should be the same as a 86+ F350 stud.
