I can't think of the size but the axle nut sockets are $15-25$ each at a good truck parts store on the shelf or most any auto parts store can order them. Ther are in the 3-4" range not in a standard socket set.

take the brake line apart where the flex jones the steel, then plug the steel or you leak brake fluid, i think the sockets are 4 7/8 and 4 3/8 , both 8 point
dumb question but I will ask anyway, DO YOU HAVE THE TMs ???????????

I only bought this one to dig a pond. Other than that I don't think I will have any other use for it. It's to expensive to operate. Only 4.4 MPH and thats on a good day. Given the price of fuel now I simply cannot afford to drive it without a specific purpose or making money which is why I am haouling dirt down the road.
I have the tm and a couple of of he instructions off the forum. Looks like the only thing I need is the sockets ams some muscle to help. A little cooler weather would also be nice. Thanks for the tips. If you got some extra tiem come on down and I will treat you to some south GA hospitality. Nice looking M819 in the avatar.

I need to purchase the sockets to remove the axle nuts. Does anyone know the exact sizes. According to what i have read they are expensive so I dont't want to screw up and buy the wrong sizes. Also is there an online source where they might be cheaper. Thanks.

Thanks. The sizes are right but I was just checking in that 73m819 said "I think." I am a nubie with limited cash. Go figure why I have a truck like this. Kinda like owning a bluewater fishing rig. You are better off sitting in the shower letting someone beat you with a bat while you tear up hundred dollar bills. Thanks for all the help guys.
