Hi,
Just about to do my GU wheel bearings. If anyone has dimensions so I could make a spanner I'd appreciate it. I know they are now round with a couple of dowel pin holes.
If not, when I make one I'll post all the dimensions needed. Would just make it easier for me to get them first.
Thanks

Austravel,
The socket for the wheel bearing nut is not that expensive. The one I have is more of a tube socket and is strong enough to tighten and loosen the wheel bearing nut.
The one I got had a 3/4" drive, so I welded a 1/2" socket into the 3/4" drive and this also works fine.
Having the right tool for the job makes it a lot easier and I would
check and repack the bearing more often having the right socket.
