I am replacing my rear axle on my P500, does anyone know for sure the exact socket size I need? I forgot to check it prior coming into work and was going to pick up after work today. Thanks in advance.

Hope I'm not too late. I'm about 95% sure it's a 20mm but.
Thanks.

Did you break an axle, if so, how? Just curious...

I am curious as well.
Spill the beans Man
Had a hole in the rear boot and did not know it. I think it prematurely wore out the bearings because it's popping real bad when I turn sharp on concrete. I just bought a new axle to save the headache of taking it apart. I have yet to replace it, but plan on it here in the near future. Just turned 1000 miles on my Honda.
