    Need 52mm hub socket Melbourne

    Urgent request.
    Sorry all, I'm changing my brake rotors, thought I had a 52mm socket but I dont.
    I would buy one, but seems very hard to find short notice.

    Anyone in Melbourne can lend me one?

    I've found I think it was 54mm ones in Autobarn.
    Not the correct size but better than a punch to get the nuts undone.

    I have one here you could borrow.

    Have you tried some multigrips?
    First time on I done the bearings on my D1 I rushed out halfway across the state to get one,
    only to realise that the 2 nuts arnt done up overly tight.
    Cheers

    That’s a good trick on the older set up.
    The 2015 Defender is a single staked nut done up to 220nm, the nut is a consumable item on these, I converted mine to the the 2 nut system so easier for track side repairs and maintenance.

    Didnt read the sig, I had a feeling it may be the case. If it was me I'd do the same, makes life much easier. Ive struggled to get the hub nut off little hatchbacks let alone a 4x4 out in the field.
    Cheers
