35mm socket for hub nut- where to buy?
|
05-05-2013, 10:09 AM
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.

Check www.machinemart.co.uk/
Unsure if one local to you 
as much as it pains me to say it but Halfrauds will be your best bet!

or a 34 and a hammer!

36 is the way forward
And halfords sell them!!

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