Has anyone used the Stanley 54mm bi-hex 3/4" drive socket that was on offer on ebay in late February successfully on a front wheel bearing on an 80? I had no joy so I when back to the laser 54mm deep socket which actually works fine if you have decent nuts.
Is the Stanley socket deep enough (did not think to check this at the time)? Does the large chamfer on the front cause the socket to come off the very thin nuts? If its deep enough and its the chamfer then would facing it off on a lathe improve it?
