The smaller studs are obviously not strong enough to take the extra load when lengthened hence the increase in diameter. The loading on the bearings is of course substantially increased as a result of the wider wheel too.

Some SJs were fitted with longer studs, probably due to wheels that were fitted. It is possible to find these studs but its not easy. I have some on my Jimny and will take a picture if I remember to show they exist (P.S I am still one short for my own collection!)

The front studs are generally longer to compensate for the thickness of the disc.

It's been fettled just a tad.
