Disco Rear wheel hub assembly lock nut

I haven't taken the half shaft out yet (still on road) so dont know what size socket I will need to shift the locknut.

can anyone advise. I need to make sure I've got everything ready before I take the wheels off.

2"AF (52mm) Same size for the lock nut and the hub nut.

Worst case, you can get them off with a cold chisel. They aren't that tight.(When they're not seized that is!)
