Tool list for the road

That's a lot of stuff to put in a small tool set. ....

 

True. You start small, with essentials, then keep adding to it to your satisfaction.

 

I hear you Sir, besides carrying most of the tools and supplies already mentioned, I also carry an extra set of engine belts and a spare alternator not that hard to replace on a N14 .

 

Spare fuel filters and wrench
Gal of diesel or way to fill filters
Roll of 6mil plastic to lay on
Soap spray bottle
Hand cleaner and rags
Air line repair ftgs
Teflon tape
Starting fluid
Deicer
Spare oil & antifreeze

 

Water sprayer and rubber spatula to get ice, mud, etcetera off of reflective tape and lights.

You blow a trailer tire, the mud flap bar gets pulled into the tires but you need to move the truck
Slide the tandems all the way back, tie the strap to the dot bumper and the flap bar.
Slide the tandems forward

I've done it more than once to get a mile to a safer spot or truckstop if my clock was low.
