No tool? No problem.
 

I'm finally getting the Blazer back together. One of the many things on the list was a broken stud on the right front. Of course, the hub has to come off to replace it.

I didn't have a spindle nut socket for the D44, so I went to O'Reilly's. The kid behind the counter looked at me like I had asked for a phased plasma cannon when I told him what I wanted. So I went home and built one. It's not the prettiest, but it's completely functional. It's 1/2" drive so I could use my torque wrench with it.
