Standpipe Allen Head

I have done some searching but not finding my answer. I have a new set of stand pipes for my 06. The largest Allen head drive socket I have is a 10mm and its still to small. Can anybody tell me what size this is?

TIA

Shane,

I had the same amount of fun with the updated ones. Sears didn't carry the correct size. They had the size above and below it tho...

I cruised on over to Steve's wholesale and picked up a 12mm socket 1/2 drive for 15.00. I just hope it holds up to 60 ft lbs since its not a name brand..

I keep going back because there open until 9pm and most of the stuff is decent for weekend warriors. I think that is one of the few times that they (or any1 else in town) didn't have what I needed INSTORE. I would hate to bother my Snap-On guy that late on a Saturday night. You will never pry my ratcheting snap-on screwdrivers out of my dead hands, ever. That tool has never been matched by anyone else that I have found...

LOL--I had to use a big torx bit because it was the ONLY thing available in the town I was working in. Worked like a champ but I don't recommend it.
