Spindle nut
I've been to 3 different auto stores and none of them agree with one another. Anyone know what kind of socket I need to remove a spindle nut off of a 89 F150? Please forgive if I don't know the correct terminology

Yes, it's a special socket. I'll give you the number right away, but it's on my Front end rebuild thread on my sig.
On edit: directly from my write-up: "- Finally, the only special tool required: a Spindle nut socket for Dana 44, there are two kinds of these, i was only able to find the one with the outer teeth, like the Powerbuilt 648473. The best type is the one like the AC675, which will have inner teeth with a skirt that will prevent the tool from slipping out when you're applying any important torque to the nut (of course i was only barely able to find the inferior type, a Cal Van brand one)."
