FL uses Neway in the rear, they do not have a propriety rear chassis! my Endeavor (2000), had that suspension and it was fine, there may be better, but only w/a tag JMO
You could go to Napa and buy a regular filter wrench, or I have used large pair of channel lock pliers from time to time. On my Endeavor w/that engine there was enough room for them. Good Luck!
