Default Rocker front wheel nut wrench
Don't know if this has been posted but take a 1/2 bolt stick the wrench end or head into the big hole perfect fit it is 3/4 inch and take a 3/8 bolt stick the head into the small hole 9/16 perfect fit.
I welded some double nuts on the shank and now i have Rocker axle wrenches for about $1.50.
Hope this helps someone
Mark

I use both allen wrenches and sockets the correct size, but pictures of what you made up might help those without them.

Thredded rod couplings from McMaster Carr work even better, no welding required under $10
