Quick question from a noob. You need 50mm and 55mm for the rear end of the MTS 12 (55mm for rear wheel removal) and a 28mm for the front end?
I think it's 30mm for the front, as per the 1098, but rears are definitely 50 and 55mm - same as 1098 again! Try not to pay more than £20 per socket!
Couldn't care if you are discussing purple monkey bottoms TBH, get some punctuation in there! Love, the Grammar Police. :biggrin:
If your strugling to get the nut off, try warming the nut up with some hot water out of the kettle, works a treat in most cases.
We use a 1" dia Snap-on braker bar (called Bertha) with a 3/4" drive and suitable socket to remove the nuts. Tried various alloy sockets, all worked to some degree but most only had a 1/2" drive.

make sure you have a drive with 3/4" drive. Else you will also need a 1/2" to 3/4" or a 1/4" to 3/4" adapter.
