There are 2 types.. One takes a Torx 60.
The other an allen wrench (I think).
Due to the tight fit a T60 socket will not fit. I cut the head off the T60 and welded it into a 1/2" wrench. Worked great. But it took a lot of force to brake the oil adapter loose.
This wrench should work with no modification;

Another link for the adapter> http://www.myjeepxj.com/cherokee-rep...filter-adapter


Btw, if I read correctly both s364k and another poster, (above), had the new orange ring fail, and went to OEM.
