Looking for a tool

Hey everyone,

I have a vibration going at 55 and have been looking into what it could be. It is felt in the seat, not the steering wheel. Got the tires rotated and balanced again, still there. I went to go make sure the rear bearing were good and none of the auto shops here had the tool needed to get the hub nut out. I noticed on Guzzlers site he couldn't find one there either. Anyone have one? Where did you get it? Or anyone have another idea for getting it out?

Cheers,
Shawn

I would look at the driveshaft first. Something along the lines of the ujoints and carrier bearing before suspecting the axles.

I am headed in that direction, but I have never packed the bearings on my truck. I have had it for a couple of years, and who knows if they guy I got it from ever did it. It needs to be done either way, I just need to get this nut off. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Shawn
