Disc brake cruiser axles use 54mm or 2 1/8 standard socket. I bought a real socket at Sears. I like it, cause it doesn't distort like the cheap sheet metal ones TPI etc sells. Wasn't cheap, though.

I looked around but couldn't find one in that size for a right price. So i just made one. I used .125 X 2 in steel. I bent two pieces each into 3 sides and then wleded it together, works great and was free.

Thx for the ideas, I am going to call a couple of trailer
places also and see what they have;)
I bought my socket for the front axle (wheel bearing) at the local NAPA for about 12 bucks.
