Question Pitman arm nut size?

My DSS came in over the weekend. Yesterday would have been a perfect day to install but I was without the proper socket to remove the OE nut on the steering box arm. What size is it? I will pick one up (any excuse to get new tools!!)
The DSS replacement is 32mm and I need to find a deep 32mm as well. I could probably get the OE nut off with a crescent wrench and pipe but getting the new one one at 185 ft/lbs will be an issue.

I think the original nut needs a 1 5/16 standard depth and the new replacement will take a 1 1/4 deep socket.

1 1/4? It seemed to fit 32mm perfectly. I have it in my pocket tho so I can gauge when I get there.
