I used an american sized socket and breaker bar. I think I used 1 1/8 or 1 1/16, somewhere around there.

Thanks guys....Especially DENNIS!!!!lol ya man i agree to much time on your hands....I appreciate it though. Went to sears today and dished out 5.00 for a socket. Turned them 3 times...I noticed a stiffer ride but I like how it sits up a little bit. Thanks guys.....
