Axle nut wacking tool or torque dude tool, hex SOCKETS for the trailing arm and cv joint bolts, extra cv joint or better yet a spare axle assy.,brake fluid, first aid kit, small shovel, folding saw that will accept hacksaw and bow saw blades, axle spacer, coil, cotter pins. And find others to ride with, cause nothing will ruin your day faster than being broken down miles from who knows where. DON'T, forget the compass. Ride safley, and thank you for your service to your country. Now, have fun.

If one were to look at the man laws for buggy riding, rule #5 eliminates the need for most of this. But since a bunch seem to ignore rule #5 I carried, and all this fit into a small canvas military ditty bag.... sae combination wrenches 1/4" to 3/4" Metric combination wrenches from 9mm to 20mm deep and shallow sockets in trays for both metric and sae ratchet and different length extensions two different size vice-grips two different pipe wrenches drift punch and chisel 2 lb sledge hammer Sae and metric allen heads for cv bolts etc. spare 930 cv and grease two different regular/phillips screw drivers black tape Large channel lock several small ratchet straps extra nuts and bolts crimp-on electrical connections candy for Brad and a tube of instant glucose, just in case Some first aid stuff If you ride with the same people all the time, if each of you were to carry something different between you and your group, you would have almost everything you would need to fix or at least limp back to the trailer |

A few basic tools and some extra random parts.. Extra Pivot Bolt with wrench CV Joint and extra CV bolts Extra Lug Nuts Cable Ties Duct Tape Oil & Brake Fluid (I do not but I think it is a good idea) Strap and a tie down MOST IMPORTANTLY .. FOOD... FOOD... FOOD.. It sucks when you go on a 2 hour ride and you get stuck for 8 hours with no food.. Water also helps.. |

depends on where we ride i guess, but always have tools extra cables and cable clamps, spark plugs, lots of beer and cigs,oil, and no one has yet to say it but i carry an extra brand new alt. belt, not so much for charging but for cooling! and hear lately ive seen a few people loose there gland nut off there pulley so that might not be a bad idea, and always a tow strap |
