you have almost everything you'll need,
the other thing you will need is the cut-down socket that Jeff H referred to. Im not certain whether your 89 uses a 27 or a 30 mm socket on the crankshaft bolt, but gauranteed, you will not be able to fit a stock sized socket on the wrench back there.
You'll need to cut a socket down to fit it back there. I used a regular bi-metal blade on a hacksaw, it worked fine, and only took a few minutes. The diamondbladed dremel would be just fine too, if you have one.
Check out my DIY at http://www.pajjakid.com/index.php?target=mysaab_DIY_crankshaftpulley . This will give you a run down of everything i did, and specifically, it talks about cutting down that socket to fit the clearance by the firewall.
I would also suggest that you consider replacing your coolant pump, and teh AC idler pulley while you are in there, plus your belts if they havent been replaced recently.
good luck,
Dave
