Rear hub nut

[neverenough]

As you can see I have the rear beam out to have it dipped and powder coated. Whilst giving the underneath a bit of attention. Unfortunately my sockets go to 36mm, and I don't have a vernier. I have a manual, I've done search on here, I just can't find the size of the nut. Could someone please tell me so I can get the shafts out please? This only bloody started as changing the rack and then Kelvs front diff came along, and the pieces just kep coming off.

41 mm i believe

[neverenough]

I guessed 40mm, I would've been P'd off to get 1 then it still be too small. Thanks

Robbie, Vincent (Neverenough) is on the south coast about 10 mins from yourself.
thats who i went to meet after i left yours that night

and as already said, it is indeed a 41mm, and ideally you would benefit from a 6 sided socket for the snug fit as it will be tight.


Dave, you go with the flow of the cars forward motion to undo them.
which as said by Georgie is: RHS is clockwise, LHS is anti-clockwise.
