Stripped lug post on 2010 MFI trailer

View attachment 8400 View attachment 8401 I had my brakes flushed on Monday. Apparently there was some air in the line on the left side. After a trip to the lake the braking does seem a little better. There is definitely resistance when I back up with the lights unplugged. They also fixed the two stripped lugs for free. Brake inspection, brake flushing, and labor was not cheap as I didn't go to my regular shade tree mechanic. Here are some photos of the new lugs (for a 2010 MFI trailer) and the stripped lug stud.

I realize this is an older thread. I'm looking for the same replacement lug post. It seems that their is a version that has smaller tines; i'm looking for the directly replacements that have the longer length tines as in your picture. Any help would be appreciated.

I will look for my receipt, and get you a part number
 
No luck in finding my electronic receipt. I did find an email that I sent to mfi asking this question. They did not respond.
 
I think your best bet is to take the old one into an auto parts store like NAPA or autozone. I think I got mine from NAPA maybe, which is why I have no electronic receipt. The thread size is 1/2 x 20
Here are a couple of threads from the other site that might help with the install.

My local big o tires found drop in replacements at o'Reilly (sp?) auto parts.
 
I had the same experience on my 2010 MFI trailer except when the tire blew it sheared through the brake line as well. Toll road guy came to help me change the spare and stripped two lugs putting the wheel back on with an air tool :eek:

Brake place replaced the line for me and did the studs as well so that seems like the place to go.
