What do you carry in your toolbox?


cellphone for the tow truck.haven't needed it because it's a ford,and it was built in louisville,ky.usa baby!
 
Truck Box: roadside emergency kit, tie downs, bungies, tarp, small tool box with tools.

Tool Box: sockets, wrenches, pliers, dykes, leatherman, knife or 2, screwdrivers, torques bits, allen wrenches, hammers, electrical tape, connectors, strippers, zip ties, and of course :pray:duck tape.

....And that all fits in a tool box ?!?!?!
Haha


And Will, the shotguns for jacklighting deer.
AKA illegally hunting at night.
I keep it legal though, my shotgun and spotlights for coyotes only.

Between the cross bed toolbox, the bed for the pick, shovels and axe and a small 24" by 12" tool box
 
Oh.

My pocket gun is a Beretta Bobcat and wouldn't shoot through a fender. If I had a shotgun on the trail I would probably be tempted to free my stuck vehicle with it.

I don't hunt because it's fawking boring. I could assasinate deer in my yard with my 357 if I wanted. They actually walk around eating acorns while I'm mowing. It's pathetic. I think we can all agree at this point that Indiana has successfully reintroduced the Whitetail Deer--it was extinct until they imported them from Michigan in the 30s. I had 2 hit in one week in the road in front of my house this winter. I had to do a summary execution on one in front of my neighbors house down the road. They have horses in their 80-acre field. They had a deer wounded by a car and didn't have a gun so they came and asked me if I would finish it off. One of their horses had actually grabbed it with its teeth and pulled it through the fence. So I have these two women that don't believe in gun ownership standing there staring at me while I pop Bambi--after they asked me to. And I'm an asshole for it. And you can't have a garden unless you build a 12' fence with razor wire and guard towers.

So have at it. But don't kill just one. My dad and his cronies used to hunt in gangs--driving the deer into an ambush. The farmers hated them and they would get together in groups of 20 guys and herd them into the kill zone. A little deer Birkenau.

We do that around here too, cept the people i hunt with are idiots and we never get a deer that way.
 
One thing I have noticed (or failed to notice) is tire plugs. A simple 5 dollar kit could save you from walking a long way. I carry a few of these kits with me in my Trail/tool box. I also carry the expected socket sets/ oils/ BFH's/ Handyman&bottle jacks(keep your stock junk that comes with the truck)/towstraps/chains, and if on a really tough trail I take enough u-joints to replace all the joints (mine uses 3 different joints), a spare rear driveshaft, extra hubs and axle c clips ( the little clips that keep the axle pulled out enough to make contact with the hubs. Depending on who I'm wheeling with I might take my 18v Dewalt impact and sockets.
This is just a quick list, but I think it covers most of what I carry. Like Will said, my box is bolted to the bed of my truck so only some of the stuff could fly around in the event of a roll-over, but it would make a mess in the box (even the bouncing around does that).
 
screw drivers,pliers, BFH, wrenches metric and standard, full socket set, sprk plug socket, picks, test light, prybar, a jack of some kind, tire repair kit, duct tape, electrical tape, allen wrnches, W-D40, ratchet strap a bit of chain, and a few spare parts
 
Full set of open end wrenches(standard)
253 piece craftsman tool set
100 psi foot air pump
Road flares
aluminum foil
Mapp gas cylinder and tourch
siphon pump
Large prybar
minature snow shovel
matches/firestarter sticks
WD-40
A quart of motor oil/transmission fluid
one gallon of diluted antifreeze
Fix-a-flat
8 inch/6 inch box joint pliers
two pairs of vise grips
Tow line
stock jack
RIGID pipe wrench
towels and rags
spare ignition switch
Flare wrench to fit fuel filter fitting.
a large and small phillips drivers and flat screw drivers
ink pen and paper

I would like to get a scisor jack to replace the OEM one.
 
a dead hooker to occupy myself till someone stops ...
