    Yep. Just buy a cheap socket to fit the hex that locks the hub and weld a 3inch or so piece of flat bar to it on its side and you have a small tool to lock the hubs which you can keep in the door pocket.

    Or just go to bunnings and get a plumbers pipe socket that fits. already has the bar with it.
    The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .

    Or cut the end off an old tyre wrench leaving a bit of bar... Bang done.. No welder or purchase required.
