how to change the axle spacers?

how to remove this spacer ?
I want to change the axle spacers on my Phil Wood SS wheels and not sure how to remove the current spacer ?
Is there a socket kind of tool ?
Picture shows the current spacer that I want to change for a smaller width.
Also, what sources are there for replacements ? I have seen sets on amazon and ebay that are CNC quality for approx $35
TIA
Joe
