I know it's 2 1/16. But I lost mine somehow. What is the metric size that I could use?

 

52.4 mm

 

Freak, they don't have iether sizes.. I really need to torque my lock nuts form my recent rotor job and recess those inner seals...

I'll just order one and find my old one. Thanks Adi.

 

No problemo

 

Go to Napa and get the closest one they have. Even if slightly larger it will bite enough to get the required torque.

 

The adapter that RN and others sell cannot be used with a torque wrench. (The flared piece of pipe with the drive hole in the side of the pipe)

In order to use a torque wrench, you need a conventional socket that will fit the square drive on your torque wrench.

I bought the adapter, it works great for removing and even reinstalling except that it will not fit a torque wrench, so with it, it is a wild *** guess as to what final torque you achieve. So get yourself a socket.

Can you order one thru Harbor Freight since you work there?

 

I found my socket, it was in my oil pan (dunno how it got there) and it is a 1/2 drive so I could use my torque wrench. I recessed the inner seals to 4-5mm, the ones I put in last job were DEMOLISHED! I had to use the extra two I had (for the rear). Guess I'll order two more. Oh yeah and while the wheels were off I painted them. Pics tmr!

 

nice. you're fixing stuff threads are so much more successful than mine. you go with the rustoleum for primer and paint?

 

Haha thanks, I just try to do it step by step and explain it like I would to a dummy (myself). Pics help a lot too! And no I didn't. I tried something new, I just washed my wheels (no sanding or prime) and used the plastic-dip spray paint. You can get it at lowes or home depot for like $5.49/can and I used one can for the front two wheels (3 coats each wheel). I'll post pics later today, I'm at school haha. Looks really good though!
