#1 big adjustable
#2, 3 if you dont have the proper allen socket set, a large bolt the correct size and 2 nuts jammed together on it (or 1 welded) can be used with a regular wrench. put the head of the bolt in the swingarm bolt, and turn it with a wrench

Don't F**k with Cookie, damn gurl..............410, just punch a long screw driver thru the side (Middle) of filter nxt time works like a charm ( not close to bottom)...Comin' together nicely

your spark plug wrench that comes in the tool kit is exactly the right size for your front axle.
I bought a adjustable from Cycle Gear that fits just fine...& use a big Allen for the other side...
