Thanks everyone, I'll pop over to the farm and measure one of the nuts when I get time. Richard, oil had crossed my mind, do you know if they are still available, all mine are fractured as the outer ring is cast iron and that doesn't take kindly to HE going off in close proximity

Regarding the ring, not sure if it is a Carrier specific part or whether it was also fitted to the trucks, if the latter, then someone like Mac's might have them.

Alastair,

You need an eight sided wrench that measures 3" across the flats.

And of course the slots are to fit the jack handle.

Are readily available in inches this side of the pond..... about $35 Cdn....... fits standard axle nuts on rear axle of C15a....... designed to be used with a 3/4 in. drive ....... adaptors from 3/4 to 1/2 inch are available...... proper socket makes adjusting the pressure on bearing much more accurate.

....but for CRS I cannot remember the manufacturer.
