List of tools needed for water pump relacement

on a 1990 Cherokee 4.0 ?
Mine went out and it's sitting in a parking lot across from my mechanic but I can't afford the $$$ he wants.
The pump is only $32.99 coolant $10.99/gal.
Note: I rebuilt the PS pump a couple years ago. Remember needing a ratcheting 13mm box-end wrench ? Amongst others ?
What size are the pump bolts and pulley bolts ?
I have a friend to help me. Have not had a car all week. Need it running.

You'll need pliers, socket wrench and sockets, and some wrenches. Gloves are tools too, wear some. Basic hand tools. If you don't have some, buy some cus you'll need them by owning a Jeep.

You will get better at knowing which size sockets and wrenches to use by looking at a lot of bolts and nuts and trying to fit sockets and wrenches on them.
