Unit bearing replacement
I need to replace my unit bearing on my drivers side front, but I don't have the right socket for the hub nut. I measured it and. I came up with 1 3/4", is this right?

yea, 1-11/16 ( or 43 MM same size ) sockets are at about any farm store, I bought them in 3/4" drive and a breaker bar, wasn't terrible in price and the 6 foot bar I had to put on to get the nut loose didn't break it either.......

Well I got her done today, only took 4 hours. The axle nut was not tight, the only trouble was getting the mounting flange out of the knuckle, but some MAP gas and penetrating oil it came out. What a chore
