I ordered mine from sears.com (craftsman).
You might try the local sears store.
Note: It's a 1/2" drive socket

Snap-On has one that fits both. Part # S3624, 36mm socket one end and 24mm on the other with a 3/8" drive in the middle. it's short and works great on the HFCM. About $25, not bad for Snap-ON.

Autozone, it's one of the spindle nut sockets. 36mm hex, no matter what it's called.

Thats like when I got mine, even though it still had the original filters (never been changed) for 38k on her. Well of course after I got her I was changing filters left and right.

I got my sockets at NAPA. It is a 3 piece set that fits most oil filter cartridge canisters and it also fits the fuel filter canister.

This is what I use on my truck:

Lisle Corporation

I found it on the shelf at my local ORielly's and have seen it at Sears in the specialty tools isle. Fits both the oil & HFCM filter caps.
