RE: What size socket...
Same on both sides. 36mm ONLY! Anything else may damage the nut. Sears has he socket. You only need one. The nut on the left side is welded to the shaft, so an adjustable wrench or the HD tool in the tool kit will hold it while you torque the right side. This bolt is also the adjustment for the drive belt, so you may have to readjust a couple of times untill you get the belt tension correct.

07 Ultra Axle Nut Torque Adapter
I have found a tool made by Kent Moore exclusively for Harley dealers made to torque the rear axle nut of my Ultra, but it isn’t available to the public. After contacting several dealers I was told the tool wasn’t for sale claiming it was for their shop use. Searching long and hard, I’ve turned one up that looked like a China wanna-bee. The tool seemed light-duty and flimsy and only 6 point making it difficult to index. Also, the ½ inch drive location would appear awkward and difficult to use. The Harley manual is specific about keeping the torque wrench perpendicular to the centerline of the adapter for correct torque (see manual). Having said that, I’ve built my own tool made from ¼ inch zinc-plated mild steel, which is 12 point allowing easy indexing and long enough for angular alignment
clearing the stock exhaust. I’ve made and sold several of these high quality heavy-duty tools to friends and have since fabricated several others for sale to shops and individuals alike.
My company has a full-blown CNC shop that currently produces aircraft parts among other things. If interested in one of these units, please contact me using the subject line description in an email to order. We will set up payment through a Pay-Pal account in the next week or so with a price of $52.50 plus S&H and can provide details via return email.
