35mm socket for hub nut- where to buy? - no2lurch - 05-05-2013
I'm trying to buy a 35mm socket for undoing my hub nut but can't find anywhere that sells them. Tried Halfords and local motor factors but nowhere stocks them.
Anyone suggest anywhere?

You may struggle to get one on a bank holiday weekend tbh, usually have to go to a tool specialist.

as much as it pains me to say it but Halfrauds will be your best bet!

36 is fine, it'd have to be stupidly stupidly tight to be an issue.

well yours was easy then, i ended up jamming the breaker bar against the floor and putting the car in 3rd gear to try and break it . . .still didn't work, had to get a bloke the size of Frankenstein to crack it off for us and i'm not small . .
