Axle Nut Socket Size Needed

[davbell22602]

Whats the axle nut socket size for 97K1500 5.7L for removing the rotors? Is it a socket or slotted socket?

I think my 2001 front axle nut was a 33 or 35 mm if that helps in any remote way. I went to oriellys and bought a few different sizes, then took them all back once I did what I had to do

on a 97 half ton four wheel drive you do not have to mess with the axle nut, just remove the caliper, caliper mounting bracket and the rotor will come off

Thanks. Thats what I was thinking at first. But have been thinking Ford again.
