How do you get the Stilson wrench to grab on the inner set of socket head bolts? The flange/carrier would seem to prevent any access with a wrench.

A word to the wise: Make sure you use Lock-tite or similar product on those bolts. They can/will rattle themselves loose otherwise with unpleasant results. (Plus it will help keep corrosion from siezing those bolts permanently.)
