For anyone who might be interested - when attempting to raise my shaker I stripped one of the ball studs. At the time I didn't have a 15mm combo wrench and tried to use an adjustable wrench and rounded one off. I called my local Ford parts and they wanted $57 for a single ball stud. I said no and called CDC(Classic Design Concepts). They were very nice and offered to mail me a single ball stud for $15 shipped, so you can get 4 balls studs from CDC for a little more than Ford wants for a single ball stud. The CDC studs also have a torx bit head on the flat top portion of the stud so there are two ways to remove them if you have a torx bit set. The Ford ball studs are solid and smooth on the top. Just a note for you all.
