    Hub socket size

    Is the series 3, ( 10 spline ) Hub socket size 52mm.
    Local repco said they would look after me, but need to order that size in.
    Thanks

    As they say, search is your friend.

    See Hub Nut Spanner

    You don't need a real socket. A tube spanner will do, e.g., Land Rover HUB NUT Spanner HUB NUT Tool | eBay

    I was about to write they are much cheaper but I just had a look on eBay and I'm not so sure now!

    Thanks Ron,
    $20 to $30, tube spanner, will end up cheaper at my local repco, 1/2 inch drive socket.
    Its a surprise the cost, when someone you know, looks after you !!!!
    52mm then.

    52mm will do, if you're ordering parts from the UK they are quite cheap.

    606435 | Hub Nut Spanner - for use with bar - Paddock Spares

    I think the nut is 1 1/4" Whitworth (1 3/8" BSF). A discussion on the forum years ago mentioned a box spanner for an immersion heater in a hot water tank being a similar size (may have been NZ rather than Australia though).
