Default Oil filter adapter gasket kit?

My local auto parts store can only find 2 of the 3 o-rings. Is there a kit online available?

If you go down to the help section in most auto parts stores there should be a kit that contains many adapter gaskets and in this kit are the three gaskets you need....I know Oreilly's has this kit in their help section atleast the last time I was in their they did....or you could just go to the dealer and buy them....my buddy just did this and I think he paid like 6 bucks for all of them

You do have a t60 torx.. Its the same on my 98. And yes can be a ***** to get to since the frame in there. I had to use a vice grip to atleast break it loose. After that was just by hand. If you need you can unbolt passanger motor mount to get a clear shot. I also got my oring for the housing at advance auto. Like 2 bucks for it
