Got a large adjustable wrench? Set it to fit over the flats of the nut,
remove and measure with a metric ruler. That should give you the size of
socket to buy.

Got an unusal situation I need help on.

Taking the flywheel off a Kawasaki FC540V. It's on a GT 275. The nut on
there is over an inch. My sockets go up to 1". I'm not sure how big I need
to go to get one that will fit it.

Went into John Deere, and see the p/n is M70119. Thought maybe that would
tell me nut size.

JD doesn't have that size spec anywhere. What they say they'll do is send
someone over to the warehouse tomorrow or Monday, take the actual
measurement, and call my dealer back. In other words, until I hear
something, it's a no go for me.

If anyone has worked on that and has the right size, I'd appreciate
knowing what it is.
