For transmission 722.203 (W4A 040) they say to use a steel bolt in one of the recesses on the balancing disc. The illustration shows a socket extension being used. I don't see why you couldn't use that approach regardless of the transmission type, so that is what I'm going to try, as I don't have the special tool.
