Caster/Camber socket

Does anyone know where to get a caster/camber bushing socket for our trucks? I had a nice one from SnapOn but it broke on me a couple of weeks ago. It appears they have discontinued this tool. It's castle-shaped.

Otherwise I have no idea what you're looking for.

Yep, it would be used for this:


I had a lot of positive camber so I got one of these that is offset to bring it back into place.

They're a funny thing - I THINK the "jeep" ones for say a Dana 30 are the same up through the 44's.......wish they'd give the dang dimensions. I had a good OTC one once, and broke it, but just like wheel nut sockets, seems like they're all about the same.
