Help! http://forums.freshalloy.com/forum/images/icons/confused.gif

I'm replacing the front wheel hub bearings on my '96 240SX & need to know the size of the socket to remove & re-install the wheel bearing lock nuts.

For your general information: I'm a governer limited driver & have warped the front rotors on this car 3 TIMES! (No, I didn't do it by driving through the car wash with hot rotors... http://forums.freshalloy.com/forum/images/icons/wink.gif) The time finally came to replace them, so I ordered some Beck Arnley units & was delighted to find "Brembo" stamped on the outside edge! shopping on line, the price was about $63 a rotor & they're far superior to the stock (quoted locally at $75 a rotor) units. http://forums.freshalloy.com/forum/images/icons/grin.gif

The few sources I have suggest a 32mm axle socket will work on this locking lock. You can shop and make a purchase, or if you have a AutoZone store nearby, you can try their "loan-a-part" program where you can make a deposit on a item like this then return it for a refund. Thanks for the tip about the brake rotors! http://forums.freshalloy.com/forum/images/icons/smile.gif
