I'm trying to buy a 35mm socket for undoing my hub nut but can't find anywhere that sells them. Tried Halfords and local motor factors but nowhere stocks them.

Anyone suggest anywhere?

You may struggle to get one on a bank holiday weekend tbh, usually have to go to a tool specialist.

36 is fine, it'd have to be stupidly stupidly tight to be an issue.
Welding and fabrication projects undertaken, contact me for more information.
