Impact wrench is the biggie. Sears carries IR. I had a IR2131 and loved it. I have an IR2135Ti now and love it even more. I use it all the time.
Those 2 wrenches are rated at 600 and 700 ftlbs in reverse respectively. A "normal" 1/2" impact gun is only rated at 250 ftlbs.
Don't skimp on the impact gun.

A cheap cut off tool ("wiz wheel") and a cheap die grinder are fine IMO.

If I lost my air ratchet I wouldn't notice it for a year (I almost never use it).
