Well, ah yes, I have a way.  I use a 1-13/16" socket (or whatever it 
is).  I believe you can find lots of 'em at Sears.  Maybe a bit more 
expensive than Harbor Freight, but cheaper than taking the car to a 
shop.  I may actually need to use mine a second time some day.  If 
you are naywhere near Boston you are welcome to borrow it.
