Aaron, Just a few helpful items in my kit: - extra set of belts I keep in the jack compartment - a big burtha 10-12 inch long screw driver (to set the tension of the Alternator belt when replacing) - an extra 10mm open/closed end wrench (you can never have enough of the #10) - 2 over sized trash bags to put around a flat tire riding shotgun (not really needed if you have a luggage rack stowed in the trunk) - cheap one dollar rain poncho & dynamo flashlight ( http://www.mfagifts.com/prod_det.cfm?id=15 ) because you never have trouble at night... in the rain ;-) - spare fuses - duct tape - zip ties Shannon Y 16506 --------------- Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2005 19:34:19 -0400 From: Aaron Crocco <acrocco@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: What parts should I carry with me?
