Rear hub nut size?

[CycleSi]

I've got a 2002 R300 Superlight with a De Dion axle and Ford diff and I'm replacing the rear pads/discs tonight.

I know the torque setting on the large hub nut is 270nm but can anyone tell me what the nut size is please so I can get the correct socket to fit it.

Somebody suggested it 'might' be 42mm?

Cheers,
Si

I always thought it was 41mm?

41mm, I use an air impact gun

as above... 41mm...
if you want to borrow a 41mm socket, send me a PM - no point buying one!

I've got Ap disc's and radial calipers on mine and I don't have to take the Hub nut off, are you sure you do?

And remember they have reverse thread on one side..

All sorted - thank you for all your help.
