If you've never changed them hit the 3 bolts on the backside with some PB blaster or something for the next couple days. I have tools I can bring with me if you don't have a 12 point 13mm socket. A 6 point will not fit.

Quotetechnically it's a 1/2" but 13 mm works also .It's truly a 13mm, but a 1/2" can be substituted. I have not found a single standard size bolt on my XJ anywhere. Even the big suspension bolts for the control arms are 19mm heads. Every write up I've seen says 12 point 13mm, but a 12 point 1/2 can be substituted. Yes, you are right though in that he'll need the 36mm hub socket also. Here's a quick write up somebody did.http://www.nagca.com/grandtech/dana30wheelbearing.htm
