This impact socket is specifically designed for the removal and installation of the rear hub nut on RWD Ford Transit vehicles manufactured from 2014 onwards.

Socket slips on the hub nut

Ensure the 4-point grip is fully engaged with the nut. Check if the hub nut is excessively worn or damaged. Clean both the socket and the nut to remove any contaminants.

Difficulty aligning the socket

Make sure the alignment shaft is properly guided into the castellated nut. Ensure no obstructions are present around the hub nut.
