    Socket Size ????

    Hey,

    Anyone know the socket size to remove the rear master cylynder mounting nut?

    Largest socket I have is a 7/8, and I'm not even sure its SAE. Largest metric is 19... neigther of which is big enough.

    I have a 1" crows foot, but there is not enough clearance on the outside of the nut to use that.... need a socket.

    Thanks

    Oh yeah, its a '05 Wide Glide

    All this reminds me of my friend. He's a 100-pound midget with 50-pound nuts. (So, he's half-nuts!)
