Question regarding front axel nut socket purchase
Greetings and salutations,
I have two questions: 1) I have recently replaced the inner and outer wheel bearings on my 1992 22re toyota pickup 4x4 reg cab dlx front driver side, and I was unable to torque the axel nut to correct spec without the correct socket, therefore I am going to buy a socket, but wait, I didn't measure the size of the nut, anyone know which one i need for my truck? 2) I wrecked one of the tapered cone washers pulling it out, anyone know a good place online you can buy a bunch of them to have on hand? I am getting ready to replace the driver side .5-axel as the boot has a tear, and I am just getting everything ready ahead of time
.
Thanks in advance.

54mm axle nut socket can be found at amazon.com, trail-gear.com has them cheap, or the local Harbor Freight or Sears have the 2-1/8" socket (but they can be 3/4" drive).
I got lucky and HF was blowing out the 3/4" drive 8-socket set for $20. The 2-1/8" works just fine.
No help on the washers.

I bought some Asin hubs off of ebay and was short several cone washers. Im a gunsmith and I have a lathe, so I just made them myself. Maybe you know someone with a lathe? Took about 5 minutes to make them.
