Need Info On Limited Tricep Day

I broke my hand in three spots about 8 months ago.The good news is it doesn't affect any of my muscles or lifts with the exception of triceps. the bad new is IT AFFECTS MY TRICPE LIFTS. I'm unable to do any form of bb nosebreakers and closegrips(two of my favorite tricep exercises). I used to do:
weighted dips
colsegrips
nosebreakers

While my triceps are probabaly my best muscle, I don't want to get soft on them. I'm sick of my tricep workouts lately that have been limited to incorporating a lot of cable pulldowns variations and kickbacks. I have never done reverse grip bench presess, but am thinking about throwing them in to help replace closegrips. How do people that do them like em.

I was thinking of something like this:
weighted dips(is actually performed as my last chest exercise)
reverse grip bench
seated db extensions
decline one arm db extensions

How does thatlook, and if anyone can give me any pointers on the reverde grip benches it would be appreciated.

*The problem with my hand is the area where the bone that goes down where the pinky finger ends to the stat of my wrist is still messed. Any time a bb is resting against it, forget about it. I guess I should be thankul that I could do most everything else, but it still sucks not being able to do certain exercises.
 
how does it feel to put the bar on the actual pad of your hand? it sounds like you shift the weight. i don't see how dips or pressdowns wouldn't bother it, but close grips do?

not drilling you just trying to see if there can be some slight shift to let you do the "good stuff"!

It's so hard to explain. For instance I can't do regular pressdowns, I have to use an underhand grip to do it. Dips don't bother it all since it's only on the outer side, but colsegrips I have problems with. The worst by far is any bb extension type movement.

Thanks for the replies, it's one of those injuries tat just hasn't healed corrrectly. I'm going to stick with what I outlined above.
