Ball joint castle nut size?

Does anyone off hand know the size of the castle nuts for the ball joints on a Dana 60? I'm at work and want to pick up everything I need before heading home and tearing it down. Hate to have to walk to NAPA tomorrow

Thanks for any help.

Paul

They are 34mm. Just did my ball joints this weekend. Very simple once you have all the tools and air. Once I removed the four bolts from the back of the rotor, used a couple of chistles to loosen the whole assembly and the rotor, bearing and axle shaft came right out. Took it to a shop to have the bearing pressed out and inserted into a new rotor and replace the u-joint. She is now back together and working great, next stop is a wheel alignment.
