Shawn,

I can't tell you the size at the moment, I am at work and my socket is not.  However once you have the size if you still can't find the correct socket, look up your Snap-on, Mac, etc, tool dealer in the phone book and they can tell you their route for that day and go meet them at one of their stops.
