Wheel Stud Thread Pitch & Count

Friend of mine has 06 3/4 ton 2 wd, he has numerous lug nut and wheel stud issues. He wants to chase the threads but we do not know what thread pitch and count the wheel studs are. Can anyone enlighten us. thanks in advance.

Just had this issue myself. One nut was very difficult to come off. Threads looked good on stud, but nut was showing some damage to its threads. Chased the stud, and it cleaned up fine. Got a new nut and all is good.
Having worked at a Dodge dealership, and now a independent auto repair shop, i can say Dodge has always had issues with the longevity of their studs and nuts. More-so than any other brand we work on.
