32 mm unless it's had an after market drive shaft which often have 36 mm nuts.

Are they a real bugger to get off do you know?

Not really. They are tight ish but not excessive so. Use a long breaker bar to shift them

Thanks.

Are they handed at all or are they both lefty loosely?

Standard left to loosen thread. There is a lock tab to knock out first but if you have a long breaker then that's not needed.

Brilliant.

Thanks for your help. I have a normal sized breaker bar and a short piece of pipe that I could slip over the end if needed.

Cheers
