I think my one of my rear wheel bearings is going out on my
80 300SD.

It makes a rough sound when going around a curve to
the right, so I believe the left rear may be bad.

Besides the dealer, where can one purchase a socket
to remove the rear nut?

Has anyone purchased one lately?

Thanks

Performance Products has the rear axle spline socket for about $60 and they will match a lower price found elsewhere. They stand behind their tools also...I once broke a tool from them and they replaced it. 1-800-243-1220.

Wouldn't hurt to check the fine sponsors of this site first.

Thanks I will. I live in a rural area and didn't think any of the locals
would have one.
