I'm pretty certain I used a 1 3/4" when I changed my DS unit bearing a few weeks back. But I used a shallow 3/4" drive socket

1 3/4 6 point will work , but it is actually closer to 1 11/16 (or whatever that is in MM)

Thanks for the replies, I found out it was a 1 11/16". My buddy had one and it came off pretty easy.
