Need a little noobie help. I went to remove the nut on the axle holding the rear brake drum on and I do not have a socket that fits. Can anyone tell me the correct size I need to buy? I cant find the size of the nut in the parts book, but I'm not sure what it's called either besides an axle nut. Also, what is the reassembly procedure? I'm confused and I think I have researched the wrong part. I saw one thread that said to tighten and then loosen the nut to the nearest cotter pin location and another that says to tighten to 200-270 foot pounds. Which is correct? Thanks!
