This might mean a 1/2 inch socket wrench with a really long handle - the longer the handle, the greater the power to loosen tough bolts, or tighten critical nuts/bolts like the axle retainer nut (175-225 foot ft lbs).
If you don't have a socket wrench with a long handle, you can achieve the same 'power' by putting a piece of pipe over the end of the wrench handle.
A spare piece of 1/2" or 3/4" galvanized Plumbing pipe works great. Electrical conduit doesn't have the same wall thickness and might tend to bend - but will do in pinch.

There is a spring loaded belt tensioner with a pulley located below the alternator. You will need a 3/8 drive ratchet or breaker bar(breaker bar gives you more leverage).
