I have to replace my right front wheel bearing but I'm having a though time finding the correct size socket for the axel nut. Does anyone know the size? I measure it to be a 33mm size nut but none of the car supply stores have a 33mm socket. They skip from 32 (which I have,a 6 point) to 34mm. Is it a special socket for Toyota?
Thanks for the reply Richard. I was considering whether or not the nut may be 1 5/16" as the measurement was roughly 1.300". I was hoping some one who had swapped one out would have a ready answer.
To follow up my question, here's the answer: Actually it's a 12 point 30 mm socket to fit up with the 12 point 30 mm axel nut. Total cost of repair $211 for the bearing and $11 for the new socket = $222! Difficulty level I'd say 3.5 out of 5.
