Don't forget jigsaw as well.

you do need a huge size spanner for the Fan belt if not mistaken...

32mm spanner for viscous fan.
For me a 3/8" E12 worked easier than a 1/2" one on the drive shafts and prop shaft.

May I ask why ?

a 36mm socket for oil filter change is needed too... but a 36mm spanner or even a big shifting spanner will work

Torque wrench?

Cable ties, lots of them.

I think this applies to later models

The thinner socket gives a bit more room to work.
