what size socket?

[terrys]

What size socket do I need in order to get the rear wheel nut off of the yerf 3203? I am going to have to borrow one so I need to know what size to ask for. Also is it right hand threads or left hand?
thanks

right hand thread, i'll get a size for you in a bit ...
1 7/16ths or 37mm will work as will a 1 1/2 (a little loose)
I always used my big adjustable. It's a really annoying size to have to deal with.

Thanks. I can borrow what ever size I need . Big adjustable what? I tried gettind a crescent wrench on it but it just kept slipping off.
Thanks

really oversize adj crescent wrench i have-- bought it to take the locknut off the tub of my washing machine -- had to cut the handle off to get it to fit inside . I use it along with a 2 to 4 foot piece of 2-inch pipe whenever i encounter something really big that needs bent or removed with extreme mechanical prejudice. ))))
