A big adjustable wrench should also work if the bolt isnt too tight.

Most hardware stores will let you special order just one socket or wrench. I got mine through an Ace Hardware store for about US $3.50.

i tried that.. im gonna check homehardware as well..but normally if you buy just one socket it gets costly..id pay 10 bucks but over that gets a little too pricy only for its value..
