Alan. Were you looking for a clutch hub or was it someone else?

No clutch hub needed but per Matts' recommendation, I bought a Snap On socket for the 11/16" clutch jamnut. I have been using the crowsfeet wrench and it has been a pain, think I will like this tool a lot.
Great thread Alan. I'm learning a lot.
FYI, you may already know this, but using a crows-foot on a torque wrench modifies the torque value and renders the setting incorrect. Using the crows-foot and making the brake-arm length longer produces more torque than the setting. To get the right setting, measure the length of your torque wrench from center handle to center drive. Then measure the crows-foot from center drive to roughly center bolt (or whatever you are torquing.)
Determine the percentage of overall wrench length you are adding with the crows foot, then back the torque setting off by that percentage. As an engineer, I always cringe when people over torque fasteners without knowing.
Being a seasoned mechanic, you probably already know this, but it doesn't hurt to throw it out there.

I'm pretty sure no one torques that clutch jam nut to a spec. .too hard to do so. Snug it up and I think it will hold fine. Alan that's one of those tools that's nice to have, glad you bought one.

Put a normal nut on it and its not so bad. I still use an opened ended wrench and an allen socket.
