I used to have a tool bag when I had a sleepover and was running regionally. it's been awhile since I packed one for a daycab. I think I have a pretty good idea of what I want to throw in it, but if anybody can think of anything I'm forgetting, please pipe up. of course, keep in mind that I'm dealing with a day cab with limited space inside, and I usually can get service within a couple hours. I would like everything to pack in one of my smaller tool bags that I have at home. I figured a couple crescent wrenches for fifth wheel adjustments, a wrench for brake adjustments if necessary, a Phillips screwdriver, spare fuses, electrical tape, zip ties... anything else I may be forgetting?
Suggestions for a daycab tool bag...

Maybe a tire plug kit and an electrical test probe to track down a wiring short? -

WD40. Get one of those mini cans if you're trying to save space. But I always carry some with me.
