Default Softail-Rocker Tools

Been away for awhile but I'm returning with a New Garage built and today I moved my Rocker C from storage to that new garage at my home.
Now that I am getting ready to start my winter mods can anyone give me some suggestions on tools and sizes that you are using for wrenching on your Rockers?? Common sizes and patterns you have encountered in your own work shops.

thanks in advance

Just to name a few:
- all your basic open end / box end wrenchs
- all your basic sockets
- A good torque wrench.
- Metric and SAE Hex bit sockets all the way up to 3/4" (need the 9/16 and 3/4" to remove axles)
- Torx bit sockets
- Motorcycle jack (I have a J&S but there are tons of threads on here to debate the jacks)
- A short roller chair / stool

And the list goes on and on and on ....
