I need to remove the front axle on my 02 this week for some chrome wheels :rock I know I need a large allen wrench to do so. My buddy made one out of a bolt and nut that worked on his 04. My question is..will this fit my axle on my 02? Same dimensions?

axle diameter may be same.. but going thru forks and bolting straight up... good question.. i would guess NO.. there is little change that wont let them swap out.

But what I meant was the actual tool to loosen the axle. I beleive it is a hex head. My buddy has made a wrench out of a nut and bolt that fits into the hex head on his 04 axle. Do you think it takes the same size wrench as an 02?
