i got a set and a spare set from these guys at the Carlisle swap meet

Do not use an impact gun on them. the "chrome plating" is kindof cheap and an impact will tear it up. ive had mine on my truck for going on 5 years now and they hold up well if you use care when removing/installing them.

youll need a deep well 3/4" socket. and some impact sockets arent actually deep enough so make sure you have one that fits before you are stuck along the road with a flat and no way to change it ;)
