Ray hit the nail on the head. Don't let the 32 mm (or 1 1/4") socket be the show stopper. Let me summarize what tool you need.
3/4" drive 32 mm socket or 1/2" drive with a cheater bar for the axle nut,
17 mm and 18 mm socket or wrench for the strut to hub linkage,
13 mm wrench for the lower ball joint,
16 mm socket and a scissor type ball joint separator for the tie rod end,
A pair of tile snipping pliers (from Home Depot) for clamping the drive shaft inner cut boot.
If the boot clamp got destroyed you can also replace it with a 4" hose clamp, also from Home Depot.
