Doing a 5 lug swap and I am trying to take the nut off so I can ger the rear hubs out. A 24mm is too small and a 30mm is way too big so I know its somewhere in between. So I'm off to Sears to buy a socket and was wondering if anybody knew exactly what size it is? Did a quick search and couldn't find anytihing.

Found a rear bearing replacement "how to" on Tuners and you are correct. Thanks!

I'm doing my 5 lug swap too. I don't have a 27mm but I used either a 15/16th or 1" socket and it did the trick.
