-Decent number of extensions of varying sizes
-Universal joints (I remember having to use a couple together at times)
-Air ratchet (as mentioned above)

And the most important tool of all: PATIENCE. I go so frustrated at times, I just had to leave the garage and have a beer. It is a TIGHT fit in our engine bay. Be ready to think outside the box and/or run to your choice of tool store a few times.

Best of luck! Overall, it is a fun experience!

Recommended air compressor & air ratchet that isn't overly expensive?


thanks
