channel locks
cresent wrench
screwdrivers

I am getting an AR-7 Henry Survival Rifle to keep in my trunk. The whole gun breaks down and fits in the waterproof stock. In about one minute you can assemble the gun and have a semi-auto rifle in .22lr.

For those that pull a trailer. Get an extra hub,bearing and seal. Grease it up and wrap it in plastic, ziplock bag it.

Also, you will need a hammer, chisel(old wood one works) and a file/bastard. If you have this, you can change a bad bearing in 1/2 hour or less.

Also, grease gun and extra tubes. Buy one of those cheap small ones at walmart. Do put it in a plastic bag. The heat will screw with the grease.

I agree on the grease gun in the plastic bag. I had a small one in my full depth Weatherguard box. It stayed in one corner but I managed to have grease throughout the entire damn box.

I always ride with a tree saw and a tow strap and a couple of shackles in my toolbox. Chainsaw during the winter. You get alot of trees down on the unkept road that I commute on. In the last three years I think I've pulled about a dozen trees out of the road.

Lots of great suggestions, I am going to be combing the thread and going truck-stuff shopping this weekend....Harbor Freight style.

Fixed the title, if it's still anchored I'll request a redemption on the Help board.

Keep em coming fellas, and thanks for the feedback.

Your title was already fixed by admin. You just fed it up again. :roflmao:

Thread was anchored until this afternoon when they fixed title and unanchored.

I've changed a tire on a full sized truck with a scissor jack before, and NEVER again will that happen.
