-Coilover wrenchs

Werd. I was waiting for someone to say duct-tape.
And from reading his post, I realized that MY kit is missing some stuff

Gallon of water (distilled), I blew my upper radiator hose one night, duct-taped it, and let the water circulate for a couple minutes. I think that's better than just litting a hot block cook...

Zip-ties, a coat hanger, maybe some tuner mags, for when I have to wait somewhere

Oh yeah, cell-phone.

For driving distance:

Extra quart of oil
Water
3/8" socket set (metric of course)
philips/standard screwdrivers
allen key set (metric as well)
extra key
spare/jack


Just blasting around town:

rocket launcher (pesky supras)

 

Nothing. I'm sure that'll all change once im boosted.

 

i keep a 128 piece tool kit in the Teg and add some extra knick knack **** in there just in case. . basically enuff to rip the whole car apart and put it backtogether where ever i am with these kinda cars you can never be too safe

 

DOH! flashlight, how could I forget that!
-PHiZ

 

extra silicone connectors and clamps, screwdrivers, ratchet with the usual mm, sockets, flashlight, coveralls, Gorilla lug wrench (stock sucks), duct tape and some, bail wire, fire extinguisher, cash for a tow bill incase, pliers, tip ties
That is most of it....

 

128pc tool set, jack, jackstands, lug socket, gloves, zipties, a long pipe, silicone spray.... you never know!

 

Everyday i tell myself im gonna make me a list for a in car equipment/tool kit but i never get around to it

I know how important it is, Its sucks how not having a simple tool can leave you stranded. A few years ago, my fuel line from my inline fuel pump came loose, and i didnt have a flathead or any change nothing to tighten it. It was 3 in the morning and i had to walk 3 miles

Right now all i have is a flathead, rathcet 8,10mm socket, 12mm deep for tbolt clamps, electrical tape, spare tire, jack, extra clamps

Note to self make a complete list tonight Iggy!!!!!!!

 

spare
jack
jumper cables
small toolbox w/ratcheting box-end wrenches, sockets, breaker, prybar, screwdrivers, pliers, etc.
coffee can w/candles
couple MRE's
water

nebraska winters get chilly.

Skoal? hook it up with the kodiak
evil stuff Took along time to give it up.
My cars carry nothing in excess but they never drive.
my truck? I dont know what it doesnt have.

 

lol, AAA card rock, used that a time or too. However, I always have one of those cheapy usinveral auto kits, along with jumpers, standard spare tire stuff, with a 10,12,14,17,19 wrench and sockets, extentions, breakover bar, big *** mag light, fuses, bailing wire, zip ties, DUCT TAPE!!!!!!, screw drivers, 5/16 and 7/16 hex drivers for IC piping couplings, and i am sure there is more, oh yea, an electric mini air compressor (used for filling slicks) but it fits perfectly in the rear cuby. It all fits int he rear cubby and rear spare well. I am sure there would be about 2 tenths if i got rid of that stuff on the street, but there is not a better realing when you are stranded on the side of the road, and can just as well fix it there and not have to call a tow truck, and then you have to make sure they bring a sliding/tilt falt bed tow truck because those front grab trucks manhandle bumpers, exhaust, etc...

wtf is bailing wire? also, why the coat hangers? and what's the 19mm's for....lug nuts?

 

haha i always use the hanger to feed wires through the firewall hole. im going to get rid of my 12" sub... it blocks the board to get to all my tools/spare, sub=pita
