Call your local tool rental; it's a pretty common rental item. > On Mar 24, 12:22 pm, johnt...@yahoo.com wrote: >> Does anyone know where I can find an inexpensive tool to remove the [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> pads? >> Thanks!!!!

I bought one of these from NAPA for around $20. I just went in the shop and looked - it's a KD Tools 2-9/16" socket, part# 2437. I found it on mytoolstore.com for $24.25: http://www.mytoolstore.com/kd/kdbrak13.html#2437 If we're talking about the hub nut on a 70 rear axle make sure you get the rounded hex, not a normal hex. I found them in my local industrial tool/equipment store for $22. http://quad4x4.com/4x4%20Tools.htm#QT1009 scroll down to QT1009 John |
