MG MGB Technical - Front Axel Nut Size

Would someone tell me what socket fits the front axel nut on a 76 mgb roadster? I want to make sure I have one before I start a bearing replacement, and I figured someone would know without me taking the wheel off.

Thank you.

1 1/8" AF on my 67 roadster with WW hubs John. 5/16" UNF thread on the grease retainers if you have WW. Rich.

I should have specified wheel type - rostyle.

Based on your replies, it looks like it's 1 1/8th no matter what, though.

Thank you!!
