Ive got a 36mm (hub nut size) that ill lend you if you put a deposit down on it but your proably a bit far away.

I thought hub nuts were 35?

They are 35, 36 works though lol

What's the best technique for getting undone?


RE: anyone in cannock or Stafford willing to lend me a 35mm socket? - zx_volcane - 05-05-2013

Jack car, remove wheel

Remove split pin from hub to reveal nut

Refit wheel and lower car back to ground

Get your socket on hub nut with bar

Support knuckle of bar with jack / axle stand

Get some scaffold tube to use as a long extension

And undo the nut!

I use 36mm as its all I've got, but its never slipped or rounded

An impact gun...or a mate to stand on the brakes.

Putting the wheel back on didn't work for me.....obviously it doesn't work with 'clones, so I tried swallows and the 36mm didn't fit through the centre cap hole! Rolleyes

Didn't have the spare tom? Or was the spare a clone?

Not with me no, spare was a swallow at the time.

Whipped it straight off with the impact gun though so wasn't a huge issue tbh.
