Special Porsche tool for ball joint slotted lock nut, also known as a BA pipe wrench! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Or borrow Dave's custom made galvanized pipe facsimile! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif)

Also, keep a philips head srew driver in the glovebox to adjust and refasten the sunvisor hardware after they work loose and the visor falls off.

All of the above plus...

patience! When it won't work, sit back, stare at it, consult with fiends, have a beverage, then go at it again!

Repeat as needed...THEN get the BFH/sawzall/dremel/torch and beat/cut/grind/melt it to death (after locating replacement parts) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Skinny 11mm wrench as well as a regular 11mm for clutch cable adjustments.

Por15...

PB Blaster penetrating oil.

Computer in the garage so the SO doesn't see you walk in all greasy.

Fridge full of cold beverages in the garage.
