What size impact sockets are needed?

[newbury]

Finally got a decent impact wrench.
Vehicles maintained:
Ford F350 w/ Equalizer Hitch
Kubota M4700
I think the equalizer hitch takes a 1 1/16 or 1 1/4 (32mm).
Does anyone routinely go bigger?
/edit - just want to be prepared

Yup, axle nuts are bigger for sure. My Dodge transfer cases have had 30 and 32 mm plugs. I just buy the bigger ones as needed.
Also have some over 1 1/4 on the tractors...

I just buy the bigger ones as needed.

That's one way to do it.
But I'm often knee deep in other problems and I think the largest I have may be 30mm.
And with supply-chain problems delivery may be problematic and the Harbor Freight is almost 100 miles, round trip when I'm in Mississippi

Sunex makes some nice impact socket sets..

Ebay or Amazon once I know I need it. Way to far to go buy one locally. If I need new size most likely I'm waiting on parts as well....

Axel nuts and hydraulic cylinder glands. But axel nuts are usually special sockets and the cylinder nuts are so tight it’s more specialized equipment. My regular socket set goes to 1.5” which is usually good enough. I have a 3/4” drive set that goes bigger that I use occasionally.

My "inch" impact socket set goes up to 1-1/8 inches.... Anything large I consider "special" and buy single socket accordingly....

My "metric" impact socket set goes up to 24mm .... As above anything larger is "special" purchase...

The metric set I picked up was this one, seems pretty go for the even low price.... Think I payed the full $50 price...

These packout sockets aren’t the best value, you could get a harbor freight set for under half the price but it’s worth it to have them organized vs falling all over the place.

Get a 1" drive socket set and you will be golden
