Normal threads. I got a '92 myself. But the down side is they are torqued to 250 ft-lbs, and if yours are installed correctly then the nut rim has a section dented in to a slot on the axle to prevent the nut from turning on it's own.. What you'll need to do is pry that dented section out without damaging the threads on the axle. Now if you don't have a half inch impact gun operating at 100psi, you'll have to do what I did the first time I took them off. get a 36mm nut and cheap breaker bar from like an autozone. Go to a hardware store and get a 4ft pipe that the shaft of the breaker bar will fit in (you may have to cut the handle at the end of the breaker bar off to get to fit in, the idea is to have as much of the shaft touching the inside of the pipe as you can). Then just take the nut off. Installation is reverse of removal
