Amazon.com and i think almost all the kits are made by OTC. The 4.0 SOHC uses the 6488 kit at around 215-220$ depending on the seller.

Oreilly's, Checkers, Auto Zone and Advance sell the same kit for 300$... i haven't found a rental place anywhere for this kit.

Word of caution!!!! Do Not Order this from the sears web site. It will be the cheapest price you find online. Mine did not arrive, then i got a week long run around about it had been delivered but could not find tracking info. This was followed by item is being resent with delivery in four weeks then a quick phone message saying item is no longer available.
I got one in two or three days from jet.com
