even with an offset wrench it won’t fully connect the bolt without slipping/stripping

Go to Harbor Freight and get a set of these long offset metric wrenches 32042. They are more offset than most and I have replaced my tensioner twice. Granted, it is a bit slow going but they do work. Patience is key
