Vice grips too - sometimes those brake lines don't want to come off! Vice grips are great!

A pipe spanner [we call 'em flare nut spanners,... same thing] is like a ring spanner with a gap around the perimiter so you can put it over ther brake pipe & onto the hex of the flare nut. They are usually made extra thick around the ring to resist flexing when you put some oomph into them.

you'll also need pliers to get the split pin out of the tie rod nut.
also 2 hammers is useful when splitting ball joints (if you are planning to do this)
