Maybe a stupid question...

Ok, first let me redeem myself, This is the first diesel I have ever had to work on.
I am going to install my return line kit and I was wondering what size wrench I need to loosen the lines. I don't think I have one big enough and wanted to pick one up on the way home today.
It's an 86 6.9 non turbo.
Thanks guys.
