What tools do you pack for a trip.

I've got the Cruz Toolz tool roll, but have come to realize it is pretty minimal.

I'd be interesed to know what you lifers take with you.

My plan is to take the following:

Cruz tools

1/4" ratchet
3/8" ratchet/extension/universal
bailing wire
zip ties
flash light
2 plugs
gapping tool
allen sockets
10mm 12 point socket
buck tool
electrical tape
loctite
allens (1 metric for torca clamp)
special tools I've made for some of my modifications
flashlight
tire gauge
flat repair kit
screw driver
torca clamp
pipe clamps (2)
spark plug socket

Anything else I should bring, can't think of anything.

I got to be honest, I don't take any. The few times I needed a tool swim had me covered.

I would had bubble gum. We got Chopper Jim's voltage regulator wire repaired with it.

Use the tools that you carry on the road to do your maintenance. That way you will know if you have all the tools that you need.
Also carry: extra screws, nuts & bolts, 36” 22 gage wire, Ty-raps, Tail light /stop light bulb, the hand wipes that you get at some restraints, duct tape.

Check your route and note the locations and Ph numbers of the HD dealers along the way.

Did I say "restraints", I don't believe it.
That will teach me to read the spell checker before I click the mouse.
It should have been "Restaurants".

Hate WD40 but I forgot to list the dielectric grease. I do carry it so I added it.
