Default 5.7 oil filter wrench

Hey Guys,
Toyota tells me that the oil filter wrench for the 5.7 V8 is a special animal that will cost around $25 if/when they can get them.
What is the story? I was also told that a 65-67mm wrench will work. I sure do not want to break or strip anything.
Got any feedback?
Ken

You can purchase an oil filter end wrench, size 65mm 14 flute from NAPA for $8.99. It is made of a polymer material and works very well.

I would not recommend using the 65/67 combination. Purchase a 65mm, 14 flute wrench, as Rudy suggested. The combination wrench will not fully engage the housing and it will slip.

I bought a 65 and it slipped. I ended up buying one that wraps around it and though it takes more time, it works.

I also bought the polymer #5 wench, 67/65 for $5.99. Mine also slipped but after I got the housing off I noticed that there are ridges on the housing that prevent the 65mm portion from engaging all the way. I cut 4 grooves with a 3/8" round file until the wrench goes on without rocking. Works now.

After doing some research on the web I went out and bought a 65-67mm 14 flute aluminum oil filter wrench from Lordco Autoparts. Junk. Bought a 65mm 14 flute oil filter wrench from the local auto parts store. Junk. Had them order in the KD Tools 65mm 14 flute oil filter wrench that almost everyone on the net recommends for the new 5.7 and it fits like a glove. The multi size wrenches slip and the cheap chinese crap doesn't fit properly. Do yourself a favour and buy the KD Tools part # 3253 for a couple extra bucks, you won't regret it.

Don't buy the plastic one. I have one and it just spins no matter how hard you push. Get a metal one!
