Example: Ace hardware Craftsman 28mm, 1/2" 12 pt.

Or, check Lowe's, Home Depot, Sears, online shop or ride there
HEADS UP! Black Friday Sales! Now till next Friday (I believe)
I stopped in at Sears last night and picked up two heavy-gauge S.S. Magnetic Bowls @ $5.99 each and other goodies. Worth the trip

Tractor Supply Company should have it. They have all sorts of tools. There should be one not too far from you.

Amazon.com can get it to you in a day or two at the most.

The 300 FORZA has a 30mm clutch nut (threads), BUT NEEDS A 41 mm SOCKET to remove it.
Same principle applies to the PCX's 28mm (threads) nut.
39mm head? (I measured my Forza's with a caliper, and found that 1-5/8" was right, and available)
If 39mm, use 1-1/2"---and be wary of that SPRING, there...

Sorry, got some editing 'problem'...
My point : I have checked with my 2014 Metropolitan, which also has that 28mm-threads nut. It
needs a 39mm socket to be removed. The PCX is probably similarly arranged.

so I need a 39mm not 28?

My bet. 28mm applies to the nut's threads only.
Like, 6mm nuts have M6x1 threads, but are typically loosened using a 10mm wrench/socket.
To be sure, just remove the clutch drum and mesure that nut's head: probably 39mm, a size very
common there.
