I am trying to change the rear shocks for some Bils. I went to grab my trusty wrench and found I didn't have one that fit it. 24 is to small so is it a 26mm? Sears here I come.

Thanks,
Mike

27mm or 1 1/16 iirc

That nut is the same nut used to hold the steering wheel on. Same part number!

If you have access to large standard tools, a 1-1/16" socket would also do the trick. I'm pretty sure that's what I used for the steering wheel nut.

Speaking of Sears- I bought a 1 1/16" crows foot wrench to torque said nut.
