- Ratchet
- 14mm Deep & Short Socket (6 frt top strut bolts, rear shock & camber arm bolts)
- 19mm + 17mm socket (bottom strut bolts, and nut holding upper frt bearing plate on strut)
- 19mm + 17mm Wrench (bottom strut bolts)
- Spring Compressor (do i need to explain)
- Pry bar or an extra hand or foot (to pry the rear control arm down for spring install)
this is pretty much the basic, im sure i missed something. Do be safe bring a whole set of sockets and such so you cant go wrong. I found that for the fronts i loved my Gearwrenchs, and found they worked the best
TIPS
Impact guns are always nice but not needed, lifts are even NICER, when installing the front springs you MUST re-use the rubber sleeve that slides onto the spring to prevent friction and clunking noises. And if your installing a camber kit the list of tools can grow as well
