Size of lug nuts on 60s travel trailer

Question

I will be traveling 70 Miles north to cover a vintage travel trailer I recently purchased. It is a 60s (Esta Villa by Estevan Industries of Calgary Canada) and it has been sitting for about 8 years. It appears to be in reasonable condition but I know the tires will be bad and need to be replaced. Can someone tell me the size of the lug nuts so I will be prepared. Thanks

3/4" &amp; 13/16" are most common size of SAE lug nuts (19mm &amp; 21mm for metric)

Careful because  a trailer that old may have both RH and LH thread studs. Take a couple of cans of Liquid Wrench and a breaker bar. Only way to tell without taking them off is that the studs will have an R or L in the outside end.

From the 60’s, it may have lug bolts and either Dexter or Fayette wheels… but maybe you will get lucky…

Very hard to find...

If so, it gets worse… one side will have left handed threads, and the other side right handed threads…

Fayette wheels

Dexter wheels… they are interchangeable…

Bring every socket you own.  That way, you can be sure it does NOT have any of those sizes! :D(That IS how it usually works...)

I'd take 1/2" drive metric and SAE sockets, a breaker bar and a 24" cheater bar. Good luck.
