Actually I couldn't find the 46mm socket at any local place, sears can't
even order one (last I checked in March).  Snap-on has one on the website(
EXPENSIVE, but excellent ), it requires a 3/4 drive.  Sears does have a 3/4
breaker bar.  Rocky mountain motorworks has the sockets 46mm 3/4" drive for
about $13.  I would recommend instead the axle tool ( about $9), also from
rocky mountain, which requires only itself, a BFH ( Big F***ing Hammer), and
a 1/2" drive ratchet or breaker bar.  It works very well and fit's nicely in
your travel toolbox.
