Not sure of the exact size but if you go "by the book" you are supposed to always replace it with a new one, because it is a locknut of the "deformed" variety.

If you ask Autozone to rent you the socket, they will give you the correct one. I think it'* 34 mm, but I'm not sure.

If it'* any aid to you, it'* a 22 MM on 87-91 Bonnies. It might still be the same on 92-99.

AutoZone could tell you for sure.

I was asking the same question earlier. No one answered but I've heard of the size anywhere from 33, 34, 36..

34mm or 1 5/16". Take your pick, but use a 6-point socket only, especially if not using the metric.
