It was a PITA to get out & I'm not looking forward to putting it back in. I'm thinking that a double box end offset might work. Guess I'll have to stop buy Sears.
I had this problem with my rear 930 calipers.
I modified a 19mm offset box wrench for this application. I cut the handle off to make it shorter and ground away material on the inside of the curved part.
