of the rear Hub Nut on a 76 clubman. It's quite a bit smaller than the front. Is it 7/8ths or 15/16ths? I'm still working through the search on the site but I'll check for replies often until I'm told or I find it.. Thanks guys! |

15/16" AF, however a CV Nut from drum brakes will also fit the RH rear. These were 1 1/4" AF. |

Take a measurement across the flats eg from one side to the other. mm or inches doesn't matter as you can work it out. 25.4mm = 1 inch |

Thankyou guys. You rock. 
It's about 23.4mm so 15/16ths it is. I'm not a fan of using metric spanners on something that may need a bit of force to get off.. I prefer my knuckles with skin on them.
