You called it, Al. The Ryobi did the trick. And now the nut is torqued to 18 ft lbs, a hair short of the max of 20. Still, I'm a little sorry I didn't give this contraption a chance to do its stuff. It probably would have set the nut just as surely as the impact driver.
I didn't spend a lot of time grinding facets on the socket, more proof I'm getting a handle on my compulsive perfectionism. Not that I didn't think about it. But this part of the installation procedure has dragged on so long that I modified the socket to the point where the 14mm crowfoot wrench would fit on it and called it good. It ain't pretty but it works. Or would, if given a chance.
