Anyone out there have a big 1/2" socket (50mm/2") that can be used to tighten the front wheel bearings on a Samurai?  They normally are 3/4" sockets and I am hoping that a 3/4" to 1/2" adapter would be available as I have a 1/2" torque wrench...

I suppose I can eyeball it but doing it "by the book" would be better.

I'm willing to rent it for a day or two!

I got one you can use, Ack.   I even have the 3/4" to 1/2" adapter.
I am over south of grain valley, in case you forgot, or never knew.

I bought my 2 inch socket at Tractor Supply Co. (TSC) for about 7 bucks.  A couple more for the 3/4 to 1/2 adapter.  A standard socket is not deep enough to tighten the bearing with out removing the axle.

of course you know a 2" is too big.

50 mm is the correct one.

The above is my opinion. It is subject (like all my opinions) to debate, disagreement, rude gestures, and loud raspberries.

Actually, no.
Thanks for the reminder, though!

As soon as I get the front end back together (I got the 4.62 in!) , I'll do that.  Can't go to ZK without brakes...
