Question for Ridgid Bandsaw Owners

I have a question for anyone who has a Ridgid 14 inch Bandsaw with a riser block. I have a chance to get a good deal on this saw, but I have a couple hundred miles to drive, and would like to know what size the nut and bolt are to dissassemble the upper half from the riser block. The person who now has the saw has no idea, no hand tools, and I'll have to bring my own. I know this is an odd, large size, there is no room for an adjustable wrench to fit, and I can't afford to buy a whole set of extreme size combination wrenches. So, if anyone would be so kind as to slip a combination wrench over the nut and bolt on their riser block, I would appreciate it very, very much. tt I have the griz block on the ridgid... I couldn't get to the top of the bolt because it's behind a shop vac switch, but I'd guess that the nut on the bottom is 20mm... (my largest is 19mm and it was a bit too small) A 15/16 fit but was a bit sloppy, 7/8 was too small.. I actually found the original Ridgid bolt after a brief search and it was also loose with a 15/16 but would work.. That said, if possible I'd leave the saw as intact as I could unless you're trying to get it into your trunk or something... My guess is that if you don't have a truck, the saw without the stand would probably lay across a back seat..
