54mm socket locally?

Anybody know where to get a 54mm or 2-1/8 impact socket locally? Was hoping to get flywheel off this weekend, but I soon realized that nobody seems to stock those sizes...

if you don't find one you can use mine,or you can do it old school with a hammer and chisel.

Go to a local auto repair shop. Get the phone number of one of the tool trucks who visits them. Call the tool man. They will have one.

Don't use a hammer and chisel. You're just going to **** something up. The nut itself is $20. Flywheels are somewhere around $2-300. An eccentric shaft is probably the same price.

If you were in WA I would let you borrow my breaker bar w the socket on it (its welded together)
Try sears like Armyofone said or harbor freight has a socket set with those sizes as well.

At the last minute (failing at sears) I ordered from mazdatrix. Should have early next week. I should have gone with my better judgment and bought one with my first order. Oh well. Guess I don't have quite as much work this weekend.
