re: "Just buy or borrow the sockets from a local auto parts store. "
There are times when you can do the job with tools a shade tree mechanic will already have. There are other times when you will need the Saab special tools. I once had a crank bolt so tight that I needed the Saab long wrench, my breaker bar and a two foot piece of pipe to break the bolt loose. (And I needed a friend to hold the flywheel).
I bet the Saab special long wrench costs a fortune so maybe you should try it with home tools and if that doesn't work have your indy do the job (or borrow his wrench).
The Tom Townsend method of putting on a wrench and bumping the starter works sometimes but now always. Of course YMMV.
