Parnes wheel removel tool
Was looking around for a tool to remove the front axle from my 14. Read about the inverted spark plug socket method and looked at a few high priced speciality tools. Decided to buy the tool form Marcparnes.com. Has a 22mm and a 19mm fitting and worked like a charm. Only $25 including shipping to the lower 48. Ordered and had it at my door in 3 days. Info for those looking for something similar. HDN

Ouch. Reversing a spark plug socket wasn't good enough?

I'm sticking to the old spark plug socket trick but that little axle hex socket is cool. A few bucks more won't break the bank.

The deal was I didn't have a SP wrench that fit.....and I wasn't going to grind one down and risk screwing up the axle nut. i also didn't have hours of free time to run around looking for a SP wrench that fit properly. It was nice to deal with the owner of the company directly and he had it here in 2 days to fit my time requirements. A few bucks more? Maybe, but in my case well worth it. Just wanted to let you guys know about it and the ++ service.

Thanx for sharing the find, i've got the HP axle tool - think it was relatively the same price and turnaround time - for the money and how universal they are, it's well worth it - i keep mine in the toolkit under the seat
