trans plug socket size?

[drew@dyermaker.cs.uoguelph.ca (drew)]

I welded a lug bolt into an offset 1/2" box end - works like a charm, and
you don't have to worry about stripping the bolt with the vice grips.

Of course, my neighbour gave me a 17mm hex wrench a while back, and now I
use that, because it's got that cool tool factor going on.
