Ay-up, I'm going to spend this weeked striping down cleaning, greasing and reabuilding all 4 hubs (and related stub axles swivels etc) on my '89 110. My question is:
does the nut that holds the hub on need a special socket to get it off? if not what size would do it?
Cheers

on my RR it was about a 52mm socket.
If it's the same as the series, then a box spanner is readily available to fit it, paddocks etc etc sell them. It's a much better option than stilsons, chisels etc which wreck the nuts. It's not worth buying a socket to fit as the cost, compared with the box spanner, is prohibitive.

I think it is 52mm, needs to be either a tube or socket spanner. Unless you already have a socket that size the special tube spanner will be far cheaper. It fits all Landrovers Rangerover Discovery (don't think Freelander) Jeep, Landcruiser, Hilux, Patrol and probably more. JD
