Teddy,
I've used an adjustable crescent wrench to service the MFTS.

chad, thanks for the info.  if it's that cheap, i'm going to replace it
if i go to the trouble of finding it and removing the connector. 1.25"
socket?  that's huge.  it sounds like the nut is 32mm, which qualifies
as a spindle nut on most FWD cars.  don't think i have one of those in
my toolbox, although i have a 35mm (yes, 35, not 34 or 36) socket for
the spindle nuts on the mustang.
