Blurgh..the vise grips that I have are too small..and no other wrench could get a secure enough grip. I had no idea the shaft was going to be as large

Blurgh..the vise grips that I have are too small..and no other wrench could get a secure enough grip. I had no idea the shaft was going to be as large a diameter as it is.

Going to have to drop by the hardware store tomorrow and get a new pair of vise grips, as recommended.

Haha, I used my channel-locks with rubber tip to hold the shaft.

GL with the install!
