54mm socket or tool - anyone have one?

I am replacing the burnt clutch in my rx8 and the flywheel needs to come off and and be ground. Does anyone have the 54mm socket or wrench bar to get the flywheel nut off that I could borrow/rent? thanks for the help.

54 mm is huge.
You could try Princess Auto. If you use it and then find out it 'doesn't fit in your tool box', you could return it. Like they say, no sale is final unless you are 100% satisfied.

At princess auto they are cheap enough , that you can keep.

Princess auto had them in stock last time I Was there. $ 20 or so. Much cheaper than the $ 60 I payed a few years ago from napa

I might have one, I'll let you know. yeah it is the same nut on the 8 as the 7, the casting look like they came out of the same tools as the earlier 13b, just machined them a little different for the side port. Buggys rx4 has a renesis E-shaft in it. Good Idea about P. A., I didn't even think of them when I was calling around for one.
