    Read the thread about what tools guys are carrying right below this one. It's annoying when the forum gets cluttered with unnecessary threads like this. The search in the top right corner is very helpful.

    Tape measure for od loads but shouldn't have any with a wagon. Hammer and nails for coils, boards that have to be nailed. Couple crescent wrenches and screw drivers for every screw in the truck. Some wire strippers, wire and connectors. Even though I carry much more that's enough for simple stuff
