jimmystartup Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 After getting all my gear ready to change tires today I realized I didn't have the correct size socket to remove the rear axle. I'm going to have to go buy one tomorrow but don't know what size I need. Anyone know this? :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawkxx Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 I don't know the size but there is a wrench in the tool kit that will work. Might have to put a pipe on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmystartup Posted June 13, 2004 Author Share Posted June 13, 2004 Thanks guys. The bike did not come with the tool kit, damn previous owner lost it. I'll go by the auto-parts store today. :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northman Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 The nut side is 27mm (1 1/16" works just as well), while the bolt side is 22mm, which can also be substituted with 7/8" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmystartup Posted June 13, 2004 Author Share Posted June 13, 2004 OK, I just orderd the tool kit through RonAyers and the large wrench is, indeed, a 27mm. Thanks for the correction although it never hurts to have more tools in the garage! :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVLXX Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 69 ft lbs if memory serves me correctly :wink: Naw.... just pull on the wrench until your third fingure starts to feel funny. And if your trying to save on gas mileage, just go for the second fingure pull. :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
