Suspension Refresh

What tools would be needed? I tried searching for that but no luck. Looks like PST is recommended. I basically would be doing this in the burbs in my garage using jack stands and muscle. I have a neighbor with a compressor, so maybe I could use that, but most likely I'm doing all this manually.

Also, am I having to disconnect the brakes, etc, for this job? So needing to bleed them, etc., when done, or can the drums stay intact?

Thanks - this would be the biggest job I've done on a classic car so the help is MOST appreciated.
