Is there a....

I have fixed most things on my truck with a multiman tool. I use a Gerber brand Bear Grylls edition. 2.5 pound sledge hammer. Small wrench set. Phillips head and flat head screw driver. Wire strippers, duct tape, and wire nuts (hold two stripped wires together. Roll of electical tape and a head lamp (wear on your head while pretripping in dark). Also a few bungie cords. The rubber ones with metal s hooks on the ends. Them metal s hooks make a great landing gear handle bolt in a pinch. Everytime im at a customers or at the yard i also find loose screws nuts and washers as you will never know when they might save your butt. Everything else people mentioned too is good.

 

Not to derail the thread, but it's too funny not to repeat.
My trainer had every tool, geegaw and doodad known to God and Man on his truck. We weighed in BOBTAIL at 12600 on the steers.
I teased him constantly about his hoarding.
Flash to me on my own. I'm scrounging for scrap wood to shore up a load behind a dumpster, see some nice rope and grab it thinking:"I might NEED this someday."

Then I remember my trainer and think maybe he wasn't so silly after all.

 

velcro and bungees

 

no worries about water, when you reserve the TA sport you get a free bottle of water

 

Only things I need

***** duct tape
****** zip ties
If that can fix it. You need to be towed

 

That duct tape is great stuff along with a can of flat black spray paint and can of flat white spray paint. Then instead of snitching on oneself for damaging a trailer; just cover the dent/hole/scratch with duct tape and paint it.

 

Don't forget a good knife. And a good wrench set. Make sure they are inches if need be not metrics.

 

A back up driver for when you run out of hours on a "hot load"...

 

Yep, that works; it's called "Two Log Books."

 

Ah yes, my old Native American friend ol Two Log Books...the only perfect driver in existence! That bugger never got inspected by the DOT, never had a ticket, accident, or load claim, and has probably run over 100,000,000 miles by now!
