D60 axle

what style of socket do you need for the wheel bearing nut on the rear D60 axle? is it just a straight 2-9/16 or is it the rounded hex 2-9/16 or does it have the nubs on it like this one?

any help is appreciated.

Hammer and a dull chisel works best. I have one of those sockets and never used since one came loose after I used it.

Mine uses a socket, but not the one you posted. It uses a hexagon shaped socket like this one Amazon.com: Powerbuilt 647067 2-9/16-Inch 6-Point Rounded Hex Wheel Bearing Locknut Socket: Home Improvement
