RR Classic hub nut size

[steve_d]

Got to replace discs all round and the book tells me I need to remove the hubs.
I'm at a car show this weekend so will be ideal to pick up the correct size socket for the hub nut if only I knew what size I need.
Can anyone help?

Many thanks
Steve

These are easier to use and cheaper

Once the locktab is released, I find it will usally undo by hand. Then to re-tighten I usally chase it round with a 8mm pin punch. (not a chisel, it will knacker the nut)

Thanks guys
Didn't get as far as reading how it went back together. Just saw the big nut and assumed high torque with a socket. Now I've looked it's tighten, back off, nip up, as per normal for taper bearings.
