Gmt800 Front Hub Spindle Nut Size?

[jpk]

I'm replacing the front hub/ bearings on my 99 4wd 1500 this weekend; since I'm 800 miles from home and don't have my toolbox, I'll need to get my hands on the right socket and a breaker bar to remove the front spindle nut. Can anyone tell me what size it is so I don't have to take the cover off to measure? TIA

Thanks for a fantastic detailed write-up and the reminder about PB-Blaster. I'll go out and give all the bolts a shot tonight.
