Wheel nut

#1 Post by Macsmax » Sat May 11, 2019 9:47 pm

Wheel nut was mentioned one other place here, but no big response. SAE 2 1/2 is the same as 65mm and cheaper. You can get them at Northern Tool. 22 dollars.

He's talking about the wheel nut socket not threads. 65 mm = 2.55 inches so what he is saying is a 2 1/2 socket might work for the wheel nut.

Seems like the only time one would take off a wheel, is having a new tire put on, and the tire shop will handle removing wheel. Even if you order a tire online, IMHO.

Did you remove the nut and re torque to try it? Great find by the way.

Most if not all tire shops will not have this socket available. One should carry this with them.

Went to their website; they have 2 3/8" and 2 5/8", no 2 1/2". Got part #?
