Why do you need welding gear?
Just a Vise Grip and a 17mm wheel bolt is all that is needed. You can then reinstall the nut and tighten the same way. You can easily attain 30-40 lb/ft of torque like this.

Sears used to stock 17mm allen wrenches.
JC Whitney used to carry a socket which was only about 1" in length. I don't know if they still carry it, the search engine on their web site sucks.
I've also taken a bolt with a 17mm head, screwed on a 17mm nut, welded the nut in place and used an ordinary 17mm box wrench before.
