crx axle nut removal

i got a 91 crx and i gotta replace my driver side axle. i got the part, and i took off my wheel and my caliper then my rotor. next i had to take off the huge nut that held in the axle. i didnt have any tool that could take that off. where can i get a fuckign nut this huge or do i gotta get from manufacturer? i just need to get this one nut off and i can replace it, thanks in advance.

Oh man I can't remember for sure what size that it, I wan't to say 32mm. You can buy the socket anywhere, I picked one up at sears but have seen than even at autozone. As for a replacement nut, they should supply one with the axle, otherwise get it from the dealer. You will need lots of torque to get that thing off. Impact gun, huge breaker bar, and a propane torch are some good things to have around.

you did a little extra work for yourself there, no need to remove the caliper or anything, but anyway, it is a 32mm socket, and after 12 years of driving around that bastard is gonna be on there good, only thing that worked for me was my 600ft/lb impact gun, good luck getting it off without one.

hmmmmn backyard style.....scissors jack, 32mm 1/2 drive socket, and 1/2 drive wratchet. with vehicle on the ground put socket and ratchet on bolt....use scissors jack to apply force under the ratchet till the nut breaks loose....i had to do that one day when i blew a axle at the track...

32mm socket 3/4 inch drive and a 6ft piece of pipe on the rachet for added torque should do it. i wouldn't try this with a 1/2 drive rachet and socket as they may not handle the torque...

hehe, alright, thanks for all the help. i have the 5 or so foot long stick from my 3 1/2 ton jack so i can just use that, and gotta go pick up the 32mm bolt today,thanks.
