Yes they are available Mike, however this is the easiest way to undo the bottom pulley bolt.
Attach your 22mm socket to a sliding tee bar, then lock it up against the ground or subframe.
Now operate the starter motor, and the bolt will be shocked free and wind out easily.
I have the correct tool to lock the flywheel, however I've yet to see the above method fail
The proper tool looks like this......
But requires the starter motor to be removed to fit it
