The parts that mount to the flange whoever is 14mm IIRC. The hubs can be removed with a 1.25" I believe

it's 32MM. You'll need an impact gun as well if you've already removed the rear calipers.

33 might and probably will work....but it should be a 32. It's a lot like most people recommend using a 2 1/8 inch socket on the flywheel nut. I use a 2 3/16 and it works just fine. Does not slip or round off the nut, just removes the nut.
