Hub nut size on a Dana 30

Can anyone tell me what size the big nut is on the inside of the dana 30 front hub is, i.e. when you remove the circlip and the 6 bolts, not sure of the actual name

 

2.125" ... nominal size is 2.0625 or 2.09375 I believe.

Ok so me not really up with the old imperial conversions is that a 2 1/16" or 2 1/8" socket?

 

2.125 = 2 1/8"
tim is prob, right but i thought it was 2 3/16" if you get stuck you can use a cold chisel but it digs up the nut (i hate it when people do this)

 

a small punch does less mangling of the nut

 

Just got done servicing my wheel bearings moments ago. The correct "spindle nut" socket is a 2-1/16"(2.0625) thin wall.
Many sockets that size are too thick to fit in the hub bore.
Most 4WD stores carry this thin walled socket for cheap.
