Cheers for the reply, didnt get PM. Got a 1 inch drive rattle gun which has 3/4 adapter. The ebay sites say its 35mm. I measured it and I think its 35mm. Would be sweet if you could hook me up with a few sockets maybe its 1 3/8 or could be 36mm. I was going to just rattle it back on. My torque wrench only goes to 150nm and it needs 300. If I can load some gear I will beer you up. I can pickup.

I'm pretty sure I used a 36mm. I torqued the first ford assembly to spec and it failed after a while. I got a mate to help with the second one (same drivers side bearing) and he tightened the f**k out of it and no issues yet! He used to service ford taxi's at the airport so trust his experience.

I reckon with the 1 inch drive rattle gun I have, if I do it up tight the whole car may spin around.

I watched one of the lads at XFT tighten mine the first time they failed...just about lifted himself off the ground to do that nut to 300Nm hahaha.
