I am a newbie to the automotive field. I have owned two Jeeps and fixed both with no problems. I just want to know what tools i need to do the job and do not want it to be a surprise after i get the jeep jacked up and tire off.

we work on hundreds of cars and do not remember that stuff until we see it.

Unless someone changed them they should be conventional bolts. Seems like 12 or 13 mm for the slider pins and 18mm for the caliper to knuckle mount.
