Not sure which tool you are referring too and what "part" that requires that tool. Can you take a picture and post it here?

I have replaced many brakes on these vehicles and don't recall a "special" Dealer tool. You will need a tool to turn the
caliper piston back in. Or if you have Electric handbrake, you will need a Scan tool to retract the adjuster.

2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive?

If you go to any Advance Auto ro Auto Zone they have a specialty tool loan program and might have the tool you need for the job.
