I tried the Motion Pro 08-0227 from Amazon, it did not work. The tool although it seems to have the pins lining up with the holes on the axle nut, it does not have the necessary depth to accommodate the spindle sticking out. Note that it is also made of aluminum so I doubt it will take the torque needed to loosen or tighten the locking nut. I tried an old socket with dowel pins welded but it could not break the torque needed to loosen the nut. I have a couple ideas and found scrap hardened steel pins 6 mm laying around. I'll try to fabricate myself another tool.
