What "just in case" spare parts do you keep in your truck?

Are you guys O/O or do companies allow you to do minor repairs if you have the parts?

 

I carry a ton of parts too and tools, and I can't count how many times that mini propane torch has come in handy. Best 20-30$ spent I think.

 

I carry a whole toolbox, spare tire, torque multiplier wrench, oil, various sensors, diagnostic computer, shovel, various nuts and bolts, torch as well. I'm pretty sure i'm missing something though...I've learned never to throw away old parts or bolts unless it's damaged beyond usefulness. I had a friend laugh at me for carrying so much but when his camshaft position sensor crapped out on him and had to call roadside service...

 

- hoses
- alternator with pulley installed
- wires
- all lights
- all fuses
- wiper blades
- 5 fuel filters
- belts
- hose clamps
- various wiring
- fittings

tools:

- fuel filter wrench
- full socket set
- full wrench set up to 1 1/4"
- electrical kit, snippers, shrink tube, dialectric grease, various light plugins, strippers, volt meter all in one small toolbox

supplies:
- zip ties
- 3 quarts diesel 911
- 3 gallons coolant
- 2 quarts power steering
- siphon hose
- several flashlights
- 1 gallon oil
- anti-sieze
- hub oil
- gear oil

I'm sure I'm missing lots

 

Socket set, box wrench set, spare lights bulbs, oil, coolant, tire plug kit, hoses, clamps, tape, wire, air hose/repair kit, fuses, belts. As others have said I'm sure I have more in there than I remember.

 

I am o/o and carry very similar tools, fluid, spare parts and now I carry a spare ecm.

 

my list is pretty similar also carry jumper cables, full set of belts, a few rolls small rolls of various size/types of wire. as well as coolant hoses,heater hose ect i also carry some spare air line and a assortment of air line fittings. glad hand air hose. and and all kinda of other misc stuff the whole under my bunk is packed with supply's.

although i don't carry a alternator, i kinda figure that my battery's would last long enough to get one if it were to fail.

iv had some road side break downs but have not needed a service truck yet. hopefully never will.

 

Vice grips, duct tape, cable ties and WD40.....if ya can't fix it with those then it ain't worth fixin'!

 

Carry extra belts,filters,and an injector.(N-14)And enough tools and electrical supplies to get by in small emergency.Last week,parking brake wouldn't release at the truckstop in the am.Leaking seal on the emergency side of the maxi brake.T-bolted it off and put a small roofing nail into the supply line to cut the air off so I could move the truck,still had service brake but no emergency on that wheel.New maxi fixed it.
Back in the 70's had a nosecone bearing come apart in Pocatella,Id. on a IHC RA355 front rear.Working in the parking lot of the old Skelly,I drained the gear oil in a garbage bag,and removed the rear,section by section.First,pulled the driveshaft and axles, the nosecone,than the intermediate,then used a pipe and comealong to pull the carrier out to clean out the broken pieces.No IHC dealers around Pocatella,but a very helpful KW dealer next to Garretts yard.Had parts brought in by busses,from three different IH dealers,stuck her back together,filled her back up with oil and headed back towards Alaska with my rock truck load.
The things you had to do to make a living back then,whew!
