Can't Get to the Locknut to Adjust Idle...

i need to bump up my idle a little bit (it's ~600); i did a search & know where the adjustment screw is and everything BUT my long socket isn't long enough to get onto the locknut to loosen it, and there's just no getting a wrench down there...
any ideas?
