Hey there everyone! I am looking for a few tool recs from fellow users. I need to start worrying about a few tools for the car and am looking for tips on which to buy from those who have already gone through the process.

Tools I need:
Bubble Flare brake line tool. I need one for a custom line made to go from my rear tunnel 90 degree fitting to my "T" for the rear brakes. I have a cheapo one that makes horrible bubble flares. Looks like the sky is the limit on a tool like this price wise, but I need just 1 line made so ideally I do not spend a ton just for that.

Front shock tool: I think I have Boge struts and suspect I need some special tool for removing the top cap to pull the inserts out? Any suggestions there?

Lower Ball Joint socket. Again, not looking to spend an arm and a leg, but will need a socket for the lower ball join on the front suspension for tightening and loosening the component.

Any links or names or even rentals would be appreciated!

Thank you
