Hi,

Could someone tell me the size of the C spanners I will need for the X3 spindle nuts.

Thanks
Bob

Yes, but I have not removed the spindle as yet. I thought someone would know the size so I can acquire the spanners before I start.
Cheers, Bob

Yes, but I have not removed the spindle as yet.

I'm confused

If you can see the nut and get a caliper on it then this will give the size.

I cannot see the nut until I remove the spindle.

Thanks Henry - Yes I've looked at that. They look around 35 to 40 mm. I guess I'll just order a couple of 3/4" to 2" spanners. Cheers.
