If you mean the big bugger in the centre of the wheel bearing, 41mm rings a bell.

Did mine last week and I used a 42mm socket

As an afterthought,does the hub just unbolt or do i need it pressed out of the carrier?.

The hub is part of the bearing. It will come apart but you'll be pulling the bearing apart to get it off.

You need to unbolt the bearing from behind to remove the assembly.

Don't forget the LEFT hand side of the car has a LEFT handed thread.

41M/M AF.

41mm equates to 1" 5/8 AF
