It's a large Allen wrench but they make a tool that fits a 3/8ths drive rachet and costs under 20$ I bought mine at cycle gear you can check there web sight but if you can't find it I can get u a link later .

I made my own by buying a bolt and 2 nuts at lowes.Put the bolt in the axle
hole and put the 2 nuts on put a box end on the inside nut then hit the outside one with an impact gun.

I just use the hex side of a spark plug socket I have. Fits perfectly. Just stick a 3/8" extension in from the "in" side and works great.

WOW, why the hell didn't I think of this? :banghead I just spent $35 on a universal tool from the Kawi store 2 weeks ago because I couldn't find anything else that would work. I have 6 spark plug sockets. You sir deserve the Noble Prize. :clap
