I thought we were good. Honest!

You can give a man a fish and he'll eat for the day. Or, you can TEACH a man to fish........and he'll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Ya notice most socket SETS have a 32MM and a 34MM but not the 33MM.
I got one from Grainger in 3/4 drive but autozone has it by itself in 1/2 drive

I have never found a nut larger than an inch, metric or Sae that you could'nt use a SAE wrench on.
1 5/16" = 33.01 MM , actually 10MM and 12 MM are the only sizes that there is no SAE wrench that will work on them.

I am a toolaholic, and have numerous metric and SAE wrenches/ sockets but could be wrong ; but I would welcome a challenge to this statement.

How do you guys know that it is metric and 33MM instead of 1 5/16" ? Metric threads?

I have found that it is harder to find the the larger sizes in metricwrenches/ sockets vs comparable size SAE

Your're right Dieselclacker, 15MM and I believe 18MM may be a problem too. I should have stayed with larger than an inch.

i have used both 33 mm and 1 5/16 sockets on my moho lugnuts. the 1 5/16 is a loose enough fit to be a problem with a long extension when torquing the rear wheels to 475 ft lbs. it does work with extra support though.
due to the loose fit of the 1 5/16 socket, i would not use it with an impact wrench. imho for impact wrench use a 33 mm tight fit socket is a must, too much vibration otherwise.
