VX800 Update - Tiny Little Bits of Progress

Over the weekend I finally picked up a universal joint for my socket wrench.

Naturally, the spot I need to get to is too small for the socket and universal joint. Grr. I guess I need to find a shallower socket, or something.

The frustrating thing is that the bolt is easily reached with a plain old combination wrench. Except it's on there so tight that I started to round of the bolt, even after several thorough dousings with WD-40. I don't want to go through THAT mess again, so I'm stuck trying to figure out how to get that sucker out...

I tried tightening the other bolt that is currently vexing me, but I'm only good for about 15 minutes of 1/8 turns and then I have to walk away for a while.

Good times!
