D44 spindle nut socket?

[Kunker]

Any thoughts on where to get one? I couldn't find the right size at Crappy Tire, and didn't see one at Princess either.

Thanks!

That's what I figured...guess I'll have to swing by on Tuesday.

Call 'em first, odds are it will have to be ordered in from another location or the warehouse.

What size? I have pretty much all sizes.

D44 size
It's a specialized socket with four prongs sticking out from it.

Yep, 4 prongs, around 2" or so around. CTC carries one in 2 5/8" with the 4 prongs, but it fit around the nut completely.

Thanks all!

My bad , for some reason I was thinking of Jeep D44 knuckle with normal axle nut.
I've seen a set of 4 of those in PA too.
Also have a few of them at work but not sure what they are for, have one for MB home but it will not fit D44.

I definitely appreciate the offer, but I figure it'll be a good thing to add to the old toolbox. Stripping down the axle this winter, cleaning it up, and god knows when it'll be going back together.
