This thread got me thinking so off to the tool store.

Found this large socket: 3 1/2" with 3/4" drive for $20.00. (see pics)

I'll have "slots" cut in it (see blacked out area on the socket) by a machine shop and edge the "slots" with hard nylon tubing to proctect the spinners.

I may add a "snout" in the center of the socket to go into the ID of the threaded hub to center the socket nicely.

I'll use a 3/4" drive 36'' long 300 ftlb torque wrench I bought on sale at Harbor Frieght a few years ago.

Just another idea.

Cheers
Greg
