Default What tools will I need??

Well I thought that I had seen a thread somewhere before that had this info in it but I cannot seem to find it now. Tomorrow I will be taking the 4L60-e out of my friends '99 Trans AM and need to know what tools I will be needing. We have taken this exact transmission out of this same car once before but pretty sure that I don't remember everything. I do however, remember it almost kicking my *** having to run all over the place to get what I needed after we had already started lol. With our limited "backyard mechanics" tools I need to know everything that I will be needing in advance this time to try and do it a little smarter than last time. Thanks in advance!

Swivel sockets are your friend. Also, a long extension for the bellhousing bolts.
