Chris,
Good additions!
Safety as always should come first, I have a couple of pairs of leather gloves that always travel with me to save my hands, I don't normally find a need for safety glasses, as I wear glasses already. But I will bring a pair of goggles for those real dirty jobs!
Another often overlooked safety item that I wish I had worn more often is hearing protection.
I now carry a lttle box with ear plugs in it everywhere I go, then when I start something that could get loud I just put them in.
I also plan to bring a box of disposable gloves, $5 for over 100 at Walgreens.
That way I can clean my hands more quickly, and I wont get as much ground in dirt. Handy when you want to eat your sandwich after pulling a tranny!
Though I have heard people talk about the health benifits of good grease and dirt!
I carry a couple of 3 cell Mag lights in my car already, and for most needs that should be enough, I have the HOLDER OF THE LIGHT coming with me(the girlfriend).
An updated list is in progress right now, I will post soon.
Eric
