<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by EK12 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">are all honda axel nuts 32mm? i have an EK but the cashier at autoparts store gave me a 1 3/16 SAE (said it was equivilent to 32mm) but turned out to be too small. </TD></TR></TABLE>

That's cause it's equivalent to about 30mm. The closes to 32mm is 1-1/4. Unless SAE and metric measure the size of a nut differently.

32mm is equal to 1.259843" or what he said 1 1/4

Go to Sears and buy Craftsman tools. Don't waste your money on autopart store tools.

any 1/2" 32mm will work, just call around before you go to the stores. I got mine at autozone for $7 its worked for 3 years now. Make sure you torque to 135 ft/lbs....
