Remove Front And Rear Bearings

[BlueJay]

In The last TDR Mag. on page 43 it talks about two sockets to remove wheel bearing nuts. Front wheel bearing nut socket # OTC 7518 and rear wheel bearing nut socket #OTC 1928. Are they the sockets that I need for my 1993 W250 4X4? If so where do I get them?

I need them on my 91. I picked them up through NAPA many moons ago.

The rear axle nut on my 91 needs a 2 9/16 socket.

Fleet Pride (truck parts) had one in stock for $18 ... much cheaper than the Snap-on price of $75.

Oh... the Snap-on socket was chrome plated not piinted like the Fleet Pride version... guess chrome (or gold) plating is expensive!!

I got one for the front through NAPA. Can't remember exactly, but I think it was under $20.

Thank you I will try NAPA for the sockets
