Tools needed for doing front brakes

I will traveling to visit my daughter and son-in-law. He has a 2001 1.8 A4. What I am trying to find out is which tools I will need to travel with (air). I will take my piston return tool and my big syringe for the brake mstr. cyl. I am trying to know specficly which sockets I will need. He has some tools, but....

Thanks

Re: Tools needed for doing front brakes

Nate that is a great article.
Now the only other question is what size
bolt (head) holds the brake caliper carrier to the strut, I am guessing it will need a 17 or 19mm socket. We will be replacing the rotors also.
