I have been to three different truck stores in MA and NH, all carry the same companies sockets on a rack on the wall, around 10 different sizes. Look like soup cans with one end shaped into a socket with a strip of metal welded across the opposite end with a square hole for the torque wrench, painted silver grey, fairly thin wall for their size, made expressly for wheel bearing/axle nuts. Went up to about 4 inch size and some of the larger ones were 3/4 drive.

McMaster Carr also has very odd spanners and such. Found a perfect Ring Spanner for the Dingo's ring nuts on the "tracta joint chalices".
