Hi Rob,

The Taskmaster Trailer Wheel Lug Nut part # TA66QR requires a 3/4" socket for installation.

However, we do have the CE Smith Trailer Wheel Acorn Lug Nut part # CE16720 that is 1/2"-20 with a chrome plate finish and works with a 13/16" socket. In the review video for this lug nut around the 30 second mark, he says it works with a 13/16" socket and actually has a 13/16" socket that he fits the lug nut into so it for sure will fit!

What kind of trailer are you replacing the lug nuts on?

I used my 13/16 for this and it was fine.

@Bob Did you use your 13/16" for the Taskmaster lug nut or the CE Smith one? The Taskmaster lug nut is supposed to be for a 3/4" socket, but if it works with a 13/16" that's good to know for the future!

@ClaireH - Sorry. I should have been more specific. I am using the Taskmaster lug.

@Bob Ah ok! That's good to know for the future! Since they're so similar in size, I figured a 13/16" could be used on it but I don't want to assume and then have it not fit yah know? Thank you for clarifying for me!
