Mk2 Font Hub Nut Socket Size.

[naim32]

The CV joints need doing but I only have a normal type socket that fits loosely (27mm).

What size impact socket / hub socket do I need?

 

It's a 1.9TDI Mk2 Automatic

 

Cheers

Hi there 27mm is the size or 1 and a sixtenth AF is the nearest to it

I forgot to mention that the reason I'm asking about an impact/hub socket is that I'm not convinced that the normal socket will hold up with the torque required.

 

Has anyone any experience breaking (or not) a normal socket trying to do this.

I have a threequarter drive socket set, it may pay you to borrow or hire one to safeguard your set
