I found the relativley simple sounding process of tightening the front axel to be more difficult than it should have been. Here are the two options that I found to get the job done.
1. Go online and buy a 19mm hex wrench with a socket drive that works on a torque wrench. Spend $ on the part plus shipping and wait a week or so for it to get delivered.
2. Go to Home Depot, by a 1/2"-13 X 1 3/4" Rod Coupling Nut for $1.25. You can find it next to the threaded rod on the metals aisle. Come home, insert one end of the nut into the axel and the other end into a 19mm socket. Tighten to spec.
Hope this helps someone and they won't have to use the time and brainpower I did to solve such a simple problem.
