Here is the one for your drive axles. No clue on that front one, sorry.

2 1/4 seems pretty small. That's about the size of the steer nut on the old rear wheel drive cars.

even if you have to throw the guy a 5 or 10 spot, or take him a gift card to a donut shop.
all mechanics like free coffee...or donuts.....lol
the go to either NAPA, pep boys, autozone, O'Reilly's, and get one? -

If you are putting tools together, I would seriously look at getting one of these, a torque multiplier, https://www.amazon.com/Neiko-03715B-Torque-Multiplier-Foot-Pound/dp/B0017K5ARU
Northern Tool also sells a larger 3/4". I have the one I posted above, It is great for getting into tight spaces, and found it incredibly useful to replace my shocks without having to tear the front end apart as my impact would not fit in those tight spaces up front. Also great for removing those stubborn bolts. Shop around, I found the above for $179 on the Walmart website.Last edited: Feb 15, 2018

If you are going to do your own overhead on your Cummins, you will need this feeler gauge for the Jake brake adjustment. Much easier than stacking a bunch to get to 7mm. M20183 Feeler Gauge JAKE BRAKE Cummins ISX Engine (3163530)
Also these feelers with handles, make it easier to get in there too. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SZ4UOZ4/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
These too, instead of a standard Allen wrench, which can drop into the head if you are not careful. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004MI5M8Q/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Yep, if you own one of these trucks, tools are your friend. -
Axle Nut... that would be great CB handle
