Socket Size for Semi Truck and Trailer Lug Nuts?

My main concern is getting the torque right putting them on. Around 475-500, I believe.

 

What driver has these wrenches in there trucks in my 32 years never seen one or looked to hard for one , and what's up with the plastic thingys they are putting under the lug nut to tell flip flop sweat pants , his nutz are loose.

 

If they are on right to start with they do not loosen up, that is a myth.

Don't buy an ordinary multiplier, there is one just for truck wheels in a case with sockets and all, I bought mine at a store similar to harbor freight for 79 bucks, and it is all a guy has to have, but I keep my milwaukii impact to run them off with. If I omly tightened them to the recommended 500 ft ppounds, it would take them off by itself.

This driver does, as does most other drivers here.

 

Honestly, invest in a decent quality 3/4" drive torque wrench. I've got a couple torque multipliers stashed away that I hardly ever use. Too much a pain in the butt to try and use.

Here is the one I have on amazon, I promise you it works well, a 6 year old can take a wheel off with it.

 

With the setup I posted, it is quicker and waaaaay easier. As soon as you get it loose you just use the handle and that extension looking thing, and just spin them off and back on till you are ready to tighten them., then use the multiplier again. I have done it with a 4 foot breaker and a cheater pipe too at times, this just works so much easier, but like I said, I keep my impact so that the most I have to do with it now is break them loose.
