Anyone have the 54mm hub socket in the Fairfax area?

As the title says. I'm doing my front axle service next Friday so wanted to see if anyone local has the 54mm hub socket. I need to borrow one for a couple weeks.

Thanks,
Patrick

Its on the calendar, but I need to see if people are interested...

Has anyone expressed interest yet? Where were you planning to have it?

I don't think i will have time to do it. I think we will start up with the tech days in the fall...

I have one in Herndon.

If you still need it you are welcome to it.

Just drive to Fredericksburg and make the big investment of about 10-15 bucks at iron pig. You'll need it again anyways

Snap On also sells them for a surprisingly affordable price.

That's what I did. Actually had a colleague of mine who lives down in the 'burg pick it on his way in to the office.

Finished the axle service in 3 days. Probably 16 hours in total. Not exactly fun but well worth it as a learning experience. I did post my lessons learned on the FAQ if anyone cares to check it out.
