basic metric sockets and wrenches. There are no special tools needed. You might need a deep socket for the intake nuts, but other than that you should be ok. What makes you think you need to replace those gaskets? A lot of times those nuts will loosen up causing the engine to run bad. If thats the case, you should be able to just tighten them.

Possibly an inverted torx bit, atleast on the 4.0L OHV.

well what makes me think i need to change them is because it is running pretty rough and it's popping system too lean codes and i was messing around under the hood the other day and the nuts weren't loose that i could tell.

You can have the same problem from your intake manifold bolts. I would go in an tighten down all of the bolts, upper and manifold and see if that helps first. Could save you time an money. Obviously do crank them down to hard but put the socket on there and give it a bump if needed.
