Turning point pin box maintenance

[MichaelL]

Anyone know what size the Turning point pin box nut is, to remove the pin box, so I can grease the bearing? I know it is larger than 2 inches.
Thanks

This thread has a lot of information on how do do the maintenance including a parts diagram.

Thanks soundsailer. I have the newer model of Turning point with the castle nut underneath. The castle nut is at least 2 inches on this model and none of Lippert’s info and diagrams shows the new model specs that I could find. I will call them tomorrow or Monday and ask them.

I do not come on here very often but I read this thread and this is what I bought for our turning point hitch.
AFF 2-1/4" 6 Point Wheel Bearing Locknut Socket, 3/4" Drive, 18520. I talked to Lippert and they told me to torque the castle nut to 50 ft lbs. I had to buy a 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch adapter to fit my torque wrench. Save the cotter pin and get a couple new ones in that size. Don't use the old one. I purchased the socket from Amazon. Good luck with it.

I think it's 2 1/4" but I don't have it here.
