ill be doing a clutch and flywheel on my 91 na soon and i wanted to get the tools ready for the job and not get stuck and have to finish up a day later. so does anyone know what size socket im gonna need ????

 

2 1/4" iirc

flywheel nut is 2 and a half inches.. biggest socket you will ever need for that car

 

uhhh... Unless the nut is a different size than my '89 N/A.

Than that nut, for sure, is 2 1/8. Thats what I used anyway. (its actually a metric measurment, but 2 1/8th works, like 33mm or something)

The best way to get the nut broken loose is to get a big peice of metal, I found some old building supplys that are used for concrete work. Anyway. This thing was like 4 feet long, 1/8-1/4'' thick and about 3'' wide.... I drilled 2 holes in it the align with 2 flywheel (pressure plate) bolts and used it has a brace on the floor while I wedged myself bwtween both wheels and pry'ed. Hope that help. Goodluck

 

The flywheel nut is 54mm or 2 1/8". You should be able to find a 2 1/8" socket at Sears.

 

... just went down to my garage and checked it.. 2 1/8 inches is what i used on my 91 NA, not 2 1/2.
my bad, hehe.
gl on getting it off... thing is torqued like a ************ but should be no problem with a good air compressor cranked up all the way.

 

2 1/8 nut. I can get you the socket for 18 including shipping.

The lowest SEARS is, is 23 plus tax

 

thanks for your help everyone ,, hopefully i can get this done soon,,
