snap on makes/sells a set.

You can also make them yourself out of various parts for around $100.
1-Cummins drain plug drilled out to fit dial indicator with a tapped/welded set screw
1-delivery valve socket PDR sells them for $35
1-dial indicator preferablly metric various pricing. Harbor Freight sells one for $20, but it is in inches. You just have to convert measurements/
1-barring tool Cummins $50 or less
1-steering wheel puller cheapo anywhere or rent one from AutoZone for free
