Ef8sirJunkie Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Doing front pads and rotors and new bearings ran into a tool issue. I found a 2 3/8" socket to remove the nut but might not be deep enough. I will find out tonight but does anyone have this socket or know of a store that does. I have called many auto parts and hardware stores. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboRust Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 are you sure its not a 1 3/8? ive got 30,32,34,36mm axle sockets and have never had a problem doing explorers.. if you meat 1 3/8 then 34 might work 36 definitely will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ef8sirJunkie Posted June 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Derek its a lot bigger then my 36mm the alldata sheet calls for a 2 3/8" socket. I got 1 from sears but doesn't look deep enough to clear the front axel. This is my dads truck and trying to get it done by Sunday for him to have Monday. Truck is 94 explorer 4x4. He blew the piston out of a caliper and so this can't go anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboRust Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 hmmm i think autozone/advance calls that a 4wd socket, they'll probably list it in mm instead of inches...thatd be like a 60.325mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
