Steering Wheel Nut Size

Post by Kevin »

Now I know this has come in for an assortment of queries on how to remove the nut when the correct size tool is not available, Hammer, Chisel, Centre Punch, False Teeth etc, and there is even some doubts over the correct size well look no longer :D
On the DSN site they deal with Minors & Minis guess what I found under accessories
Part no TLS7010 Socket 1 5/16" AF, for removal of Steering Wheel and Camshaft nuts. £5.40 + vat
So at least you now know what size to look out for :o

This size also fits the plug on the back of the master cylinder - just in case you wanted to add the remote reservoir kit..

If you need a specific nut or bolt size, then look at the club mag for Nov/Dec 1999 and in the Tech. Tips there is an excellent list comiled by a chappie called Albert Southerdean.
It lists all the sizes required for the Minor
Alternatively, e-mail me and I'll send you a copy!
