Tires T273 bolts dimension

[chrise]

Hi


(I meant socket/spanner needed for T273 wheel NUT not Bolt! - can't edit the title)

I just got a flat on one of the front wheels. The wheel nuts look to be about 5/8" but these are going to be metric, right? I don't have a metric socket set and anyway they're rusted in. Does anyone happen to know the spanner/socket size needed in the tractor as delivered? I don't see this in operator's manual. I guess that might vary by dealer. It seems a bit trivial to ask, but if anyone happens to know this it would help me tell a mechanic what to bring along when he does a house call.

I don't have a TYM dealer any more. The last, up in Southern Maine/NH was awesome but he went out of business back in 2010.

Thanks

Chris

Looks like you would have about a 2 hour drive to the only dealer here in MA out in Springfield.

Thanks, but I won't be doing that. There's one in NH and about an hour and a quarter away but their attitude sucks! No, I'll have the local tractor man make a house call. The nuts look between 5/8" and 11/16".

My TYM T450 wheel bolts/nuts are 22 mm / or 7/8"... but sockets are 12 pt so should use 6 pt socket if REAL rusty- to be safe....
