Thomas, a 2 1/8" socket will work fine. I also
recommend borrowing (if you don't have one) a heavy duty impact wrench (the one
I use has over 900 ft/lbs of torque) to get the flywheel nut off. You can
wrestle with it with a breaker bar and get it off, but a impact wrench makes it
much easier. Don't forget to loosen the front nut before breaking the
flywheel nut loose. I also use a piece of angle iron bolted to the bell
housing mounting holes in the rear housing and oriented so the counterweight
will wedge against it to keep the eccentric shaft from turning while you wrestle
with the nut.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Flywheel nut
Hi all,
Does anyone know the size socket needed to remove
the flywheel nut on a Renesis? 2 1/8 " measures tight. And where has anyone
bought said socket?
Thomas Phy
Renesis finally in
shop!
