I got a 10mm Allen wrench, cut off the angled part and used a 10mm socket for the torque wrench ;)

The steel is very hard...you will need an air cut-off tool or a disk grinder. A hack saw is not going to work very well.

10mm allen craftsmen for a 3/8s ratchet + extension will do the trick. It is a little tight in some spots but it is still fairly cheap and easy to do.h
