    1/2" drive, for me, is the only size that has a socket for the rear axle nut. Beyond that it's mostly the 1/4" set and sometimes the 3/8" set as well.

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

      It all depends on the sockets you have. My hodgepodge of cheap sockets are mostly 1/4" up to a certain size (14mm?) and 3/8" after that. I believe all of my deep-well impact sockets are 1/2".

        Anybody know if you can order that “special tool” for the synch screws and locknuts anymore and what it might be called to search for??

          Maybe start a new thread instead of asking in a 10 year old one would get better answers?

            Just thought this one already had the relevant information. Tried searching for a post that already discussed it but didn’t know what terms to search for.

              This is similar to the one I have from I think motion pro.
