Hi i couldnt find your e-mail address so thought i would post on here. If you know someone who has one that is kind enough to lend me one that would be great. I would need to remove my hubs and then i have to go to scrapyard remove them off another van (unless i can find some others.) and then put them back on my van. Long job it sounds i know but its not that long. Havent got the money at the min to buy the other arms but want to get the old ones off so i can get cleaned up undersealed etc. So if i can borrow one it would be a case of get mine off then give socket back and ask nicely again when i have money for my new arms. cheers for the offer. :)

I should have put this on yesterday. Nick gave me a bell to let me know that he has a socket i can borrow. Thanks for trying to help out its good to know that there are still people willing to help out. My next task is to get the arms off and hopefully get to the scrap yard and get the arms off the van there. And hopefully they wont scrap it before i get the money together. Heres hoping

if you need the socket with torque wrench,
for re-assembly (258 ft/lbs needed if i'm not mistaken,)
give me a shout on here,
or give nick a ring,
i'm sure he'll pass on the message.....

then again it depends on what hub nut it is, earlier ones may be 350 odd lbs/ft of torque.
