You won't find much bigger than that either in 1/2" drive, I was looking for larger sockets for suspension work (steering nut removal and 2500 series truck work) and could not find anything in 1/2" drive bigger. I ended up getting a set of 3/4" drive sockets and ratchet\breaker bar and it's been downright helpful for these situations. Brad is right, the SAE stuff may not be a perfect fit, but it's "good enough" in these situations to get metric bolts loose and tightened. I used them on my 6.2 diesel injectors as those required a 34mm (I think) and finding that socket was not easy.
