10, 12, 13, 14, 17, 19
you going to need a 32mm axle nut socket.

32 for the axle nut
try to get some short, deep, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 inch ones, extensions, reducers, swivel joints, and wrenches too in all those sizes if possible, and of course you need the ratchets that the sockets go onto
some pliers needle nose and whatever else kind of plier you can find
some crescent wrenches, those adjustable ones
couple of screwdrivers phillips and flats
a pry bar for removing the axles and whatever else wont come loose
a big bar or a breaker bar for the stubborn nuts
some PB blaster for the stubborn nuts
some punches for the shift linkage pin and the axle nut where it is pinched in
a cherry picker, OR 2 Jacks if you pulling it out from under the car
ball joint seperator
big effin hammer
maybe some unusual tools like vicegrips etc.

oh if you are replacing a clutch or flywheel you are going to need 12pt sockets

Weak!EG

which socket sizes will in need in 12pt.. we are doing both a clutch and flywheel while the motor is out of the car..

Richard...

i think you guys forgot the best tool of all a big bastard hammer! lol

Punch for the bitch pin. Also you don't NEED to separate the balljoint. Sometimes it's easier to disconnect the upper control arm from the strut tower and unbolt the strut from the lower control arm to pull the axle out.
