Front Suspension Rebuild in Process - Questions? (archive)

For those of you that have rebuilt your front ends, I have a few questions (I'm no master mechanic, keep that in mind):
1. Do I need to put some bearing grease in the strut bearings?
2. Do I just use a torque wrench (1/2" drive) with the "special wrench" that bilstein provides to get the shock insert out, is there a special wrench that I need? 3. Do the inserts come out easy?
Thanks for any advice.
