Having a set of basic hand tools is essential, including socket and ratchet sets, and you might find a torque wrench handy for those specific bolts that need precise tightening. Considering safety, always remember to wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from any debris and gloves to keep your hands safe and clean. Furthermore, working with the engine off and cooled down can prevent any burns or injuries, ensuring you’ve got a secure and safe environment to tackle the repair. Happy wrenching!
