That should work. 22mm with a square drive for a torque wrench.

A 14mm bolt, nuts and a touch of weld will work, what I made for mine. The bolt doesn't have to be that long and 3 nuts will work, I was just too lazy to cut the excess off.
Loosen the clamp bolts, slight shot with an impact gun and you're good to go..........Mike

Ebay - axle spindle drive. Gives you multiple size options too.
I use one and it's great.

I use the large spark plug socket (13/16) in reverse. Just stick it in backwards, and use an extension. Don't have to make or buy anything because it's something you already have and use.

I got this socket. I take my wheels off every time I get a new tire which is about twice a year for front and back so I recommend getting a good socket so you can tighten it down and loosen it without stripping the inside.

just a followup from my earlier response herein - the axle nut key I got from Amazon worked like a charm.
