Title: Hub nut?
Post by: Reggieroo on July 17, 2007, 13:23:23
Can anyone tell me what size the hub nut is on the back axle of a RRC as I need to change the rear brake discs & pads.

It looks to me like its a 52mm but don't want to go & buy the wrong socket.

52mm is stuck in my mind for some reason :)

Yes it is 52mm.

The problem with a socket is that it probably won't be deep enough. They are also pretty expensive in large sizes.

Your best bet is to get hold of a hub nut socket. Probably the nearest place to you will be Douglass Motors in Wolston, link in my sig, they usually have them in stock.
