Default Pass Peg HELP

I noticed my left passenger peg bracket is touching my exhaust (Rinehart true duals). I had a ball end allen wrench with a box end wrench attached, and the wrench is flexing and seems like its ready to snap (I can't believe how tight that bolt is) I am trying to avoid taking off the pipe. Is there a better tool? Or a better way? Please HELP.

Thanks,
Aaron

I ended up getting the allen head sockets from Sears. The left side seems to be particularly limited for space trying to use a regular allen key wrench. The bolts on my 08 Ultra were also really tight....I ended up having to use my breaker bar from my socket set (with an extension) to finally break it loose.

$75 and bolt is out, I ended up buying the extended length ball end allen socket kit (not sold as single),3/8 to 1/2 adaptor, so I could use the 1/2" breaker bar. So anyone with passanger pegs and Rinhart duals, do yourself a favor and move the pegs down before installing left header pipe.
