Temporarily remove offending nuts and threaded shaft. expand hole for half inch or so depth (approx 12.5 mm, other units are available)

A hollowed wooden dome made to allow covering of the nuts and turned to fit hole occurs to be a solution to me.

I am sure wood haters could no doubt cobble together a metal version of same.
