To clarify and add to the rule out list for unfit sockets for this job, it was a axle nut socket at NAPA that was too short:

I have a standard chrome 1 1/8" deep socket that is deep enough....if, you control how far you slip it over the IPR. I think in the future I would use a piece of round/hollow foam (heck even a piece of wood with a hole through) to leave the last 3/16"-1/4" inch to engage the hex on the IPR. Then I think a standard deep would do it....might not get the 1/2 drive fully seated but the foam would allow you "push" the drive in while turning.

As I was putting tools and supplies back after a minor campsite repair, I snapped a picture of my IPR removal tools. One is the 29mm axle socket linked above and the other is a 3D printed tool I bought off an overlander that made a couple. Both stay in the truck under the back seat along with a lot of other things.

My socket came today and threw it in the tool box. Hopefully I never have to use it. 😂

A road side IPR isn't too bad, just make sure you got a decent pair of gloves with you too. Pulling one on a hot engine is unpleasant without protection. Remember fellas no gloves no love.

We were towing our 5th wheel to the beach and about 2 hours from home the passenger side CAC to spider boot kept popping off. After the third attempt at fixing it on the side of I-26, I managed to get to an off ramp. We took the Subaru (our chase car) to the nearest autozone where I bought a 24" 3/8" extension so I could get to the boot clamps down by the radiator.

That extension rides in the truck everywhere it goes now, just in case.
