As is the 405. If I had to guess, I'd say the ZX will be 35mm too.
This is not a signature.

35mm is not in everyones toolbox either, just because it's an odd (as in odd number) size and bigger than usual... i had to get it from a special shop that sells the weird automotive tool.

Yep, 35mm - and it needs to be deep. You can borrow mine if you are near Glasgow :lol:

I bought a complete 3/4" drive socket set in Trago mills for about £25.00. If you dont live in the west country, there must be other places that sell them. I dont very often use it, except for drive shaft and crankshaft pulleys, but I am very pleased that it is there when I need it. Probably what a dealer would charge you to undo it! :shock:
