Yup, the same as a VW axle nut, funny enough.

Most auto parts stores will have a wrench for a VW axle nut. Try that angle. I actually borrowed mine from a VW repair place many years ago, when I went to return it, the guy said "Just keep it, we have lots", so I slipped him some cash for his generosity and I still have it. Never thought I would end up needing it for a Harley! LOL!

Lowes has 36mm sockets individually (that's where I got mine). Sears should have them also.

Check out a couple of pawn shops - most sell individual sockets, wrenches, etc. Cheap too.
