Can anyone tell me what size socket i will need for the front n/s centre hub nut (the one on the end of the cv joint) on a MY99.

cheers

IIRC it's a 22mm.

But my memory isn't the best

Sorry, I knew it had a 2 in there somewhere

I do know the torque setting tho, 186Nm. Good luck getting the old one off

Big bar time me thinks

Yep, get a very big bar and chisel the old nut where it has been 'locked' in place. I had to use a crow bar in between the wheel studs and the ground to stop the hub from rotating, then jumped on a very very big bar Probably would have been easier to undo the bolt wheel the car was on the ground........
