Default Do It Yourselfers! Tools needed to work on 6.0

I posted this in powerstroke.orgs forum figured id do it in here too.

RADKITPLUSA, Vacuum/Filler, Cooling System
This ensures no air bubbles, proper coolant level every time and no need to burp!

S6196KR, Socket, Ford ICP Sensor, 1 1/16", 3/8" square drive
This is the early build 6.0 Socket for ICP sensor. And no the turbo doesnt have to come out either to get to it same with IPR

OTC Tools & Equipment 6765 FORD 6.0L IPR SOCKET TOOL, StockWiseAuto
This is the IPR Socket. To pop IPRs out you dont need to pull the turbo but the engine has to be cold
