To get a socket to fit the stem locking nuts I went and bought one of the inexpensive deep socket sets. Then I took the one that fit the nut and "modified" it to fit inside the small hole where the stem is placed. I used a grinder to turn down the socket diameter. Since the nut uses little torque I wasn't worried about breaking the socket.
