Unfortunately these things are usually torqued down SUPER tight or stuck! That particular tool can be found at most plumbing supply shops .... it's a 1" internal pipe wrench, nothing special!

And in a worse case scenario can crack the nut and the stand. The factory style tool is a face pin spanner.Unfortunately these things are usually torqued down SUPER tight or stuck!

I'll see if I can find one locally for cheap. Luckily, I don't need to remove the nut, just reinstall and tighten! Title: Re: tool?? Post by: 56BLITZ on June 18, 2012, 18:12:21 pm At one time, there was a "spanner" type tool made to fit on the end of a 3/8" ratchet extension . . . is it still made?

Title: Re: tool?? Post by: Kaferdog on June 20, 2012, 08:29:43 am Yeah I have one of those from waaayback ....!...I think if it were to be a little thicker it would be a bit more stable ..Sometimes it has tendencies to slip...maybe a little more weight...?
