which side were you working on and which way were you turning them?

They should all be right hand thread

I have had many break off because of overtightened nuts...then the dis-similar metals lock up the nuts and they seize

Not on a '92 ....."left hand" studs & lug nuts were not on the cars since the early '70's

Yep, I think the Valiants are the same. My '64 Barracuda still has Left-Hand on one side and Right-Hand on the other. I have to stop and think about it every time I take a wheel off the passenger's side.
