In the fork seal replacement tutorial, Mr Matchless refers to a home made tool with a 19 mm nut welded onto a t-handled rod. Am I correct in assuming this refers to a nut that will fit into a 19mm socket? At Lowes, they describe the nuts by the size bolt that it screws onto. They called it an M12. Or maybe I got a nut that's too small. A nut that would fit over an M19 would be pretty big.

post your findings, Im interested as well.
Here you go Sparky http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=148996&highlight=steve+fork+tool
Scroll down to the 4th post. I swear I searched for this first but guess I didn't use the right words. I guess you could include the names Steve, Bwringer, Nessism, Posplayer, etc in every search and probably get to the good stuff quick.
Yeah Ray, I checked the nut in one of Lowe's sockets and it's good to go. Just wanted to make sure it was supposed to be 19mm OD.
