32mm socket, pretty easy job  bit heavy makes refitting awkward single handed or then again could be I'm just cacky handed

When refitting i always put the wheel on a wooden block the same height as the holes for the axle. That way after hooking the chain on you can push the wheel back in line and sort your spacers and stuff out without awkwardly holding up the wheel 😀
