Front Wheel Studs

I was getting a vibration in my 74 Spiders front end. It turned out that it was that two wheel studs are broken and the wheel was secured by one loose nut. Unfortunately while I have the CD's for the spider I can't access them since I upgraded to Vista. Before I start disassembly I would like to know what the studs are secureced to. Is it the disk or a hub. If anyone has a schematic I would love to see it. Terry

They are pressed into the brake disc and then pass through holes in the hub form the back side.

Caliper and bearings are what's in the way. (oh, and on the LF wheel, the hub nut threads are LH)
