Viper get a set of channel lock pliars. Is your engine and tranny original. Man dats a lot of milage I just bought a 1996 with 180000 and she runs like new so your milage makes me fill better abt milage. I guess it all in the maintainance. Oil at 3000 and so forth. Or do you have another secrete. Wht abt the the tranny is it original. if not when do you change it out. tks terry--------tboss Ps channel locks work greta on the hub nut.

You are going to want to torque that nut back to the correct torque when you reinstall so I recommend getting the socket as opposed to putting some channel locks on it. The Sears stores near me carry it in stock, but its not cheap. It is a 1 11/16" Socket on my 2001 4x4. Hope this helps.
