Question front brake socket size

I seem to forget what sizes we need for the front wheels brakes. I would like to find a small case with the correct sockets in them.
So I will need... the wheel lug size,, the calipers have 2 bolts one larger and 1 smaller.. then i would need the 4 bolts that are inside the knuckle that hold on the hub. And wheather i need deep ones or not. If anybody knows these correct size sockets that would be a great help. also I should buy 6 sided sockets also. and good one that will hold up. thanks jeff

my lug nuts are 13/16, the caliper i believe was 9/16, and the bracket for the caliper i think i ended up with 18mm... 6 point sockets would be better... you dont have to have the deep well sockets
