Tried the two links for the wrenchs. I figured after having to use a screw driver the last time and spilling in the garage I'd just spend the couple of bucks for the wrench. Tried Oneida $3.99 for the wrench $9.85 for shipping! Went to SJ Discount Tools they want $4.15 for the wrench and $10.85 for shipping! I think I'll be going to Autozone for that wrench.

I picked up my last one at Advance Auto, for about $5, just looked at it,its made by Ampro and is a 65/67 mm, and a 3/8 drive ratchet fits it. Part # T70405

Thats excellent thanks! I have to run errands after work today anyway, so I'll head over to Advance Auto with the part # and see what they can do for me.

i'm up in canada... it would cost me more for the shipping and then cost me more at the border...
in all it would probably cost me like $40 to get a $4 part...

sweet find on that wrench... time to go get one locally too

Trigger, that was the wrench I was thinking of. I bought one once and crushed the first filter I tried it on. I also have a couple of the cup type wrenches. It seems to with them however that they fit some but are just off a smidge for others. The ones I have wouldn't fit the stock filter, but they fit the aftermarket filters great. That's why I ended up using my trusty old metal strap wrench. The biggest thing about it is the pivoting handle that allows you to keep it away from scratching the frame. The K&N filters are the best though, if you want to order some ahead online. I use them on my wife's Suzuki Grand Vitara as that filter is just a b*tch and in a nasty spot and I found the nut on the K&N really helps.
