i think it's 32mm. I guess I could go out into the garage and take a look at the socket that I use, but i'm too lazy

32mm or 1-1/4" if you dont have a 32mm.

I totally found that out the hard way.. make sure its torqued down because they do come loose if not.. I actually lost my nut on the highway.. and almost lost the other one as well

anyway, isn't there a hole for a cotter pin to prevent it from working it's way off?

Perfect thank you so much. Off topic but, Will a fwd dodge stealth tranny bolt to another fwd dsm like talon? Thank you again. This is such a great site. I have learned gobbs of stuff here. I appreciate all help!

A FWD Dodge Stealth or Mitsubishi 3000GT transmission will not bolt up to any DSM. The bellhousings are completely different.

Thanks.. I got everything pulled today. AWD trans with Tcase and complete engine (less turbo manifold) for 200. Was I lucky or what! Thanks for the nut help! Again, awesome site and awesome community. Cant wait till I can answer questions.

 

[sledge42hammer]

Another question. The 98 awd trans will swap with my 95 correct?

Anyone know the socket size for a 1st gen fwd or are they the same?

32mm are the norm
