Default rear axel cone nut
What is the axel cone nut size. My drive belt is just a bit loose and was going to make an adjustment during my 10K service, however the nut and weld nut on the other side of the axel is smaller than a 1 1/2" and larger than a 1 3/8". My service manual listed the special HD too as HD-47925 but gives no size. The HD site does not pull that part # up. I am guessing it is a "dreaded" metric wrench of about 36mm. Figure I have about 3-4K left on the rear tire so if I pull it myself, will need something then.

Is the HD tool a Snap-on.

You have a wrench in your tool kit!
I use a 36mm socket.

I used to have a 36mm socket but the wicked witch of the west didn't send it when she filed divorce. Your tool kit must be quite extensive to have that wrench on board.

Thanks for the info.

My tool kit gets more extensive each time I work on the bike. I bought both a 36mm socket and an 1 7/16" wrench the first time I changed the rear tire.
