Morning chaps,
Not at home to measure nut sizes for front and rear wheel bearings.
I need to borrow a 3/4 inch drive socket to crack the wheel bearing nuts before wheeling the car
into garage to strip suspension off the chassis.
Are front and rear the same size?
Either way anyone let me know nut size please ASAP.

Cheers,
Paul.

Hi Paul,

I use a 41 mm socket slightly loose but works fine (40 mm will not fit). The nuts on all hubs are the same and are very tight (approx 250ft/lbs) I suggest you by an impact socket for the extra strength.

Regards

Mel.
