You will need two, one of which does not come in most standard sets. For the driveshaft side, the big nut is a 24mm socket. You'll need a 12mm socket for the pinch bolt on the other side.
You'll need lots of different sizes; a good assortment of six point metric sockets isn't very much and would be well worth the money spent. I personally prefer Northern Tool over Harbor Freight, but that's my own preference. -Kurt On Sun, May 12, 2013 at 5:25 PM, surfswab <[email protected]> wrote: > A set of metric sockets is pretty basic.
