1982 Stumpjumper spokes
Been working on a 1982 Stumpjumper build for few years. Collected most of the parts. I should have listened and bought Wheelsmith wheels but they were very rare, so I bought Suzue Sealed hubs and Araya 24 1.75 rims. Problem now is I don't know the spoke size. I read they are DT Swiss, that's about it. Don't know the type or length for front and rear. I need guidance to move forward with this build.

Sorry, fat fingers and the glare on rims didn't help either. My heart stopped for a second though thinking, damn did I order wrong rims. You will be surprised how many wrong hubs I got.

Rim pic with size
My hub collection. Not knowing what a Suzue sealed hub, bought several and tried different techniques, but finally found a NOS set. Not sure what to do with extra stuff.
