I have a torque wrench that could manage that torque setting (it's 1/2" drive), but not a 41mm socket.

Steve.

Thanks for the offer guys, in the end I bought a 225lb/ft torque wrench from Halfords (£60) and a 41mm socket from Camberley Auto Factors (£14) so not cheap but at least I have them for future use (and if anyone wants to borrow them

Managed to get the hubs off and replace the studs in a couple of hours so easy enough, and while I was there I fortunately noticed one of the pads was missaligned and so had prematurely ward down to the metal on one side - just as well I checked before my next trackday!

cheers

No problem Mike, I acquire tools as I need them too.
