A normal socket won't work.Gotta use one of those stamped thinwall jobbers for axle nuts.And let me tell ya,They ain't cheap!!!!Make sure you get 8 sided.Not a standard 6 sided jobber.....Like I did the first time!

I did a search for "spindle nut socket" (I selected find all terms )and there were 8 results, 6 of which are for the deuce(could have selected which forum to look in also). Several of them have manufacturers name and prices and locations to buy them.
