If you bought the kit new it should come with instructions and a tool list. Pretty much you will need wrenches, socket sets
and a Torque wrench.

You will need a drill and some bits to mount the rear track bar bracket to the frame on passenger side unless the kit came with the axle track bar bracket.

You can borrow a spring compressor from Autozone or some other places with a small deposit which would make the install easier.

Harbor Freight sells Pittsburg brand torque wrenches and with a coupon you can get a 75-150 ft/lb wrench for cheap. I have one and it's just as accurate as the Snap-On wrenches I have that get calibrated every year.

Breaker bar or a section of pipe to slide over ratchets/wrenches.

If you haven't already check out the teraflex 2.5 install video on their website or you tube. Definitely makes it look less intimidating
