Default OT: What's the largest wrench I would need to work on my R

Since I had an issue with not having the right size tools, I plan on buying so open ended wrenchs and some more deep sockets. Just need some sizes to aim for.

Largest socket you'd need would be a 32mm for the axle nut.

Yeah...those are a BITCH! I hated removing them in my hybrid swap. We broke a heavy duty Snap On ratchet.

Bone, I'm stumped. I don't know where a 7mm is. I know where a 13mm is, if anyone cares to guess.

Also, does anyone know where a 7/8" wrench is used?

When adjusting the air cond pulley - you loosen the nut & then place a 7mm on the end of the shaft to rotate the tensioner pulley up/down....

bling!bling!

header spring bolts are 12/14
rod bolts are 13mm.
arp head studs are standard 1/2" 12pt.
sometimes the ac adjuster bolt is a 10mm

you wont mess up the axle or nut if you dont remove the dimple.
I use a 6' bar on the breaker bar to get it off either that or my impact.

me + breaker bar + 6' pipe = 600lbft torque!!!

it is on the TB, only needed if you wanna adjust the TG+B blade opening. It is the one stated "NOT TO MEES WITH!" in the helms.
