Front hubs help

[Westex]

Oh where, oh where, do I find an "8" sided socket to take off my front hubs, oh where oh where do I find.........

My local NAPA had one in stock for about $30, If NAPA doesn't have one I would try looking at a heavy truck shop.

You got a NAPA number by chance?

A quick search turned up this helpful thread.

Just to clarify: The socket to fit this is an 8 sided socket, with a 3 inch diameter from flat to flat on the nut to be removed.

The front one was easy for me to get from NAPA. The back square one was harder for me to find, but the Snap-On truck had one. I also bought a 36" snap-on 3/4" drive breaker bar and that actually took two weeks to get the tool guy to deliver to me, but man, does it work good, you can loose the lugs pretty quick. Bastard weighs like ~15 pounds though, just a giant chrome bar with a 3/4" head, doubles as a personal defense weapon.

Square?

Yes, long levers make lug busting much easier.
