what size socket fits hub retaining nut (in middle of repair)

I am in the middle of a wheel bearing replace and I don't have a socket big enough to fit the hub retaining nut. Off to the parts store, anyone know what size adjusting nut this is?

Thanks.

99 percent sure its a 15/16.

Thanks for the quick response Andres2882. My largest socket is a 15/16 and it is to small

Thanks everyone.

I feel like a complete hick saying this, but I have always just used Channel Locks.

I am kind of a newbie at car repair, so I didn't want to strip out the nut. This was my first wheel bearing replacement, went smooth.

Eastern Arkansas must be a lot like Central Florida.
We use the same tools on our cars.

Can do that since it gets torqued to like 15 inch pounds. Can really just take it about 1/2 turn past hand tight. I always use a torque wrench to be safe though.
