BJ8 Overdrive

So I’m finely getting around to rebuilding the transmission and overdrive. I’m tryin to figure out how to get the accumulator piston and housing out so I can install new rings and o-rings. I see the tool they show in the manual. Do I need it? Where can I get one or how do I make one? Or is there another way to do it? Any tips would help on this part of it.
