It's LH thread, and you lock the rear brake, and get strong with it. I don't know the size, I just took my new nut (You'll be replacing it, hopefully), to Sears, and broke out the goldcard.

IIRC 1 7/8" I think I just bought that socket I am at work,

put the sled in neutral lock the back brake and use an air impact to remove,
less drama less effort, no pain
BTW NEUTRAL not first, that way you are not sending bad vibes to the alternator bell or beating on the engine bearings.

and I believe that its a lefty, BTW check the install instructions there too
