I considered gluing it back together but for under $20 I'll replace it.

I replaced mine a couple of weeks ago and learned the hard way there is a special socket for those things that makes it easy.

It’s big. It’s like a big deep-well socket. The size etched into it is 1-1/16", but it’s not quite a 6-point and definitely not a 12-point.

I’m trying to find the one I got at AutoZone, but their website sucks.

Aha! Got it

It  looks like I need a deep 15/16" or 24mm socket to do mine. I’m not sure I have either of those haha

I purchased a 27mm, 24mm, and 1" (none worked) before I discovered the specialty one exists.
