Toyota Oil Filter Diameter for GX

Is the factory filter 64 or 73mm diameter?

Want to get a filter wrench, the strap style is less than desirable for oil changes with this vehicle.

You'd need 73mm.

I really like this style:

The hard metal part dents into the filter and it isn't slipping after that, you're able to put lots of torque to it.

So I answered my own question,

I took an OEM Toyota filter for the GX from of the parts shelf at the house, and it measures a bit over 7 cm, thus confirming the 73mm oil filter wrench.

Thanks!
