Front axle removal tool

[monster]

How much do they cost? There's a picture in my manual of a guy using a nut welded to a bolt insted of the proper tool? Is that what I should do? Anyone got an extra tool they'd like to sell cheap? Thanks

Can't remember the exact size , but a bolt and two nuts is all you need. I welded mine to make sure it wouldn't slip. works great and only cost 2 bucks

I believe the proper fit is 24 MM

I tired to make one but couldn't find the 24mm bolt and nuts anywheres. Wound up buying one on ebay for (I think) $20. Yea--a lot more than what you could weld one up for--if you could find the parts.

15/16" works fine too and easier to find.

Motion Pro makes this in aluminum and steel.

It's a 5/8th bolt and nut. It has a 15/16th's head, fits perfect. Weld the nut to the bolt and presto.

Got this idea from another thread here, but here it is....

Go to Home Depot and buy a Rod Coupling Nut, they'll be located next to the all-thread rods. The size is
5/8"-11 x 2-1/8, I think it cost a buck or something and it fits exactly perfect, then just use a socket, done.

Specifically, it's in an orange package hanging with several other sizes. Looks like the part number is 19166.

Appreciate the offer. I'm going to Home Depot at lunch to see if they have the rod coupler that TulBusa suggested. If I strike out you'll get a PM lol. Yeah I'm buying tires next week. My back tire is bald in the center. The bike has 5400 mi on it so it's time

I might even have an extra... they arent a perfect fit but good enough to get the job done
