Gene, You will likely have to make a serious tool to get that nut off the plate. Try making one from a socket wrench using a grinder. The one shown is one I made for another purpose with four dogs. You only need two and that will be a bit easier to make. Keep a can of water handy when grinding. It will get hot. Good Luck.

Is there a tool made just for this? Any home made tool designs someone might want to share? Two #10 WNG bridge pins fit into each recess but will not budge it when I turned them with a big crescent wrench. Possibly some square steel rod that fit a bit better would be helpful.
