I bought that socket from Moss and used an impact gun to loosen the nuts. It
nearly wallowed out the square hole. A very soft metal. Once I get the nuts
back on, I will return it to Moss as defective.

Subject: [Healeys] Nothing Goes Right
I ordered the 8 point 2 3/16" hub nut wrench from Moss so I can torque the hub
nut down. The 2 13/64ths tube wrench I have is too big and just slips off when
I apply any pressure to the nut. I'll never get it torqued down that way. I
called the Moss tech line to ask if the new flimsy looking tube hub nut wrench
they now sell will let me torque the nut to 150 ft lbs. Almost before I could
finish asking him, he said, "that's what we designed it for!" I am not
convinced. Go to the online Moss catalog and look at part number 384-907. Tell
me that looks like a tool you can put a lot of torque on a 1/4" thick nut.
Now look at the picture I have included in this email. I want to install my
nice re-chromed emergency brake handle and new emergency brake cable. If you
look at the restored handle on the left you may notice something odd. The
ratchet plate that bolts to the tunnel is for a handbrake that is installed on
the driver's side of the tunnel. Only problem is, the BN2 emergency brake
handle is on the passenger side. I have a good parts brake handle, (the handle
on the right in the picture) at least I thought I did. The ratchet plate is
corroded solid on the shaft. I have been soaking it in PB Blaster for a couple
of days. I think it is going to need a blue wrench. Of course I don't have one.
Every thing I do to this car to put it back together is a fight. Nothing is
easy, nothing goes right. So, I am looking for a emergency brake handle ratchet
plate like the one on the right in my picture. I'm willing to pay.
