need help finding "camber adjustment tool"

I got a SPC camber kit put on my 97 3.0 a few days ago to replace my old engalls.

Apparently the instructions say you need their tool to adjust it (because of the tight quarters) and all that tool is is just a really flat wrench that can squeeze in where it needs to...

Has anyone faced this problem and found a wrench that I can find at a local shop for cheap that will fit?

Here's their overpriced tool:

The camber kit is #84945. http://store.specprod.com/CGI-BIN/LA...2F205D+M37+ENG


I've been to two alignment shops that don't know how to adjust this and I want to make sure I have a fittable wrench before I go through the trouble again.

Thanks!

You can take a normal open end wrench and grind flat w/ a grinder till it fits.

Links are no good.

good luck

Heh, you're the third person to recommend that actually.

I broke down and ordered them online anyway (though I found them for WAY less than the manufacturer charges.

But to save anyone else any grief, don't bother going to lowes or any auto shops (pep boys, western auto, napa) because I tried all those.

Even funnier, I think I found the exact same tool in my toolbox today when I was looking for something else. Those sort of things come for free with furniture sometimes. I'm going to check when the real one arrives next week. If they're the same, I'm going to be pissed. lol

Links are no good.
I know, the forum is set to not allow editing after 5 mins so I couldn't adjust.

Cheers
