Hey, Steve!

<snip>Anyone know where I can get a 17mm and 19mm hex wrench?<snip>

I'm probably WAAAAAAAYY TOOOOOOOO late with this, but
Home Depot, Sears, Autozone, NAPA, any hardware store to name a few.
Actually, don't buy the 19mm if you have a 3/4 inch box wrench. The
difference between them is less than .002 inch & most times you can use
either one. Just buy the 17mm. At .669 inch it doesn't come close enough to
a standard size english to be interchangeable. 5/8 = .625 & 11/16 = .6875.
Sorry this was long, but sometimes I can't keep my machinist self under
control, LOL
