Thought a few people on here said that Halfords 3/4" pro range went up to 46mm.

They also crop up on e-bay ... 1 or 2 very expensive, odd bargain if you have a good look.

Nat go to Beesleys tools, its just across the road from Kwik fit, and the Shell garage, I got the 46mm in there and the 3/4 to 1/2 adaptor, so you can borrow either of them if required. They stock all the over sized range in the shop, so don't have to order....;);)

Halfords do sell a 1"13/16" = 46mm hub socket, 1/2" drive most tool suppliers will be 3/4" drive.A 3/4" drive torque wrench aint cheap!
