I bought a big bolt with a 3/4" head on it and then threw a nut on it and welded the nut to the bolt. Throw the socket wrench on that and done. Couple bucks.

I had the same issue last week... Drove to harbor fright no go a, then on way back home saw a flea market going on, paid my .75 cents to get in and found one for two bucks... It was a L shape Allen so I used the bar off a tube bender to loosen it up....

I believe its a 19mm allen key. ordered one off of ebay cant remember but not much plus I needed it. Suggest getting two of them in case the axle starts rotating. Used a piece of pipe as a cheat bar. Front wheel is 17mm.

Snap-On Tool or Mac Tool Truck in your area will deliver to your house. They will need your 1st born as payment however.

TopDown Products has the best axle side mount I've seen.. The recess on the rocker swingarm makes it hard for a standard axle mount to work properly..
