Auto Hub Spindle Nut Socket

What size and where can you get a socket to remove the spindle nut for the 3 bolt auto hubs? I have one to remove and replace. I went to 3 different parts stores and none had one.

94, I found one at NAPA for $16 which is half what the OTC cost on line. It is a one time use for me so if you need it send me a PM. I do not expect to use it again.
