Brake Job question

Going to do my first brake job on the 99 this weekend, putting Bendix Fleet MetLock pads and shoes all the way around.

My question is, is there any special tools needed to do a brake job on these trucks? I've done lots of brakes in past just not anything this big. Will a need any big Torx drivers or anything like that or is it all done with standard tools?

Thanks

DB

Re:Brake Job question

I did just the front pads on mine several months ago and if I remember right, it was just standard tools.
