Also, where did you get your starters?
There may be too much flexing with 3/8 extensions if so go right to 1/2 inch. You have to transfer the torque not radically twist the 3/8 extensions. A 1/2 inch breaker bar is usually required as well. That top bolt can be tight.
Thank me for posting this as your bolt will now almost fall out because I suggested it might be difficult. Make sure your metric allen bit is bottomed in the fastening as well. This is one bolt you do not want to mess up.
