Hey,
This is a really dum question but ahh well!
Am i correct in thinking that the wheel nuts on my 90 take a 27mm socket?
Kind Regards
Sam

all standard LR wheel nuts are 27mm on 90/110/def/disco1/rrc ie: the ones with 165PCD hubs!

You can add series 3's and 101's to that list too.

is it alloy nuts you have?

its normally cos the rust under the tarty cover makes it expand so a 27mm socket dont quite fit

Old sankey trailers are 24mm as I found out when trying to undo them with a 27, doh :roll:

I think some LDV vans are 28 though
