Go to the some of the more involved guides on the Step-by-step Guides under the phones icon to your right. Each guide will have a tools list like this:

Tools

Phillips #00 Screwdriver

Plastic Opening Tools

Small Flathead Screwdriver

Spudger

iPhone 4 5-Point Pentalobe Screwdriver (if iPhone has external pentalobe screws)

iPhone SIM Card Eject Tool

david woodgate, I'd start with a tool kit like this. Get an inexpensive multimeter as well. For parts, I'd stick with dock connector, display assemblies and battery.
