I made my tool using a 12x30mm cap screw (bolt) which I had welded
three nuts onto.  You end up with a 30mm long 19mm hex which you can
use with any socket or end wrench

I did kinda the same thing, but with a 3/4" bolt(about 2 1/2 inch long), 2 
nuts and a lock washer.  I should have the nuts welded, or atleat epoxied, 
so I can use it to remove the thing, but I lucked into a full sized allen 
wrench at my local True Value Hardware store for a good price to do that.  
So I use the bolt to properly torque the axle in place.
