the tool to slide the carrier back and forth?

i found a peice of steel that fits almost perfectly in the groove and i just put that in one of them and pull back or push forward..

I found a tire pry bar I have works great. Fits perfect into the slots.

I use the allen wrench to turn the carrier also. I think what speedy was saying is the carrier is designed to be turned with the allen wrench that comes in the tool kit as well as it being used to loosen the bolts.
