WTF!!! you're joking about the brake fluid right? You don't even want to know how poisonous that stuff is.
When doing the ball joints I like to have a big hammer, a big punch, and lots of liquid wrench around. An electric impact wrench (or a 5' long breaker bar) will also make things easy. When you put things back together use lots of anti-seize so that if a wheel bearing goes in 20k you won't have to break another set of broken bolts.
plan on an alignment after replacing the tie rod ends. You also might want to lookl closely at wheel bearings and cv boots - never be easier to do that right now.
The only special tool you'll need for the master cylinder rebild is a circlip pliers to get the spring ring (that the piston shoots through) out. If you're doing the master now, do you think the slave (or the rubber hose between the two) is that far behind? Being stranded sucks.
For clutch bleeding I made a pressure bleeder out of a garden sprayer. see site below for details
