Why not go to your local auto parts store and buy the proper tool . I did, cost about $8-9 and saves a whole lot of jury-rig hassle.

So I'm off to Home Depot, Gem Auto, Sears, Advance Auto, ... and no one has a 17mm allen socket, or even a 17mm allen wrench.  Then Harbor Freight comes to mind, but I also remembered someone mentioned a tool (I think at HF) specific to removing that big allen bolt.  That would be an upgrade indeed.
