locogato11283 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 i highly doubt they will have a nut of that size and thread. its a specialty metric nut as far as i know. only place that would have something even remotely close would be a specialized fastener store.. even then, its not likely.

I didn't think he wanted the nut. I think he is after a socket to remove the nut. I could be wrong though. SP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smuttdawg Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 The socket size is 1 1/4" It does not need to be over tightened when putting it back on. :beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banshee_terror_ Posted March 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 i got the right socket but now how do i hold the hub so i can take off the nut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MILO Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) i got the right socket but now how do i hold the hub so i can take off the nut? if you have an impact wrench you can spin it right off pretty easily. if you don't have that or a tool, you can stick a rag in between the gears to lock them up enough to break the nut loose. i wouldn't use anything hard to try to hold the gears, a rag should do the trick. that's how i hold it to tighten it back up again also. make sure you bend the tab back on the lockwasher that is behind it before trying to loosen it. don't be offended bud, i've seen people struggle to loosen it and they didn't bend the tab off of the nut. it's just a helpful tip.
