Default Socket size for Front hib replacement ? HELP ,

Hey guys, I'm replacing my front wheel hib/bearings. I seen in a couple of threes that the socket size for the front wheel nut removal is 34 mm.... So, I went out and bought one, that being said... It doesn't fit, to small. Does anyone know the correct size of socket ? Buying one socket at a time stinks to just use 1 time, also gets real expensive when you get the incorrect size. Any help would be great... Thanks...mjclemm...

Don't remove the packaging, you should be able to test the sizes and then bring back what doesn't fit for a refund.

If 34 was too small, then I would think it has to be 36.

According to my notes it "Should be" a 34MM

Where did you purchase the axle, could be a one of reman unit and the outer joint is different does the diameter of the splines look correct compared to the one thats on the car now?
