    What does everyone use for/keep in their emergency car toolbox?

    For mine, I found a cheap ammo box at Harbor Freight that fits about perfectly in the little nook on the right-hand side of our trunks, along with a foldable camp shovel, quart of oil and the surprisingly useful scrap 2x4 block.







    What's in the box:
    • Lint free rag
    • Zip ties
    • Channel Lock pliers
    • #2 Philips screwdriver
    • Flathead screwdriver
    • Wire cutters
    • Crescent wrench
    • 17mm wrench (for accessory belt tensioner)
    • Pliers
    • Needle nose pliers
    • Knife
    • 3/8" Torx bit set
    • 3/8" Hex/Allan bit set
    • 12pt Metric socket set
    • 12pt SAE socket set
    • Spark plug socket
    • 3/8" Ratchet
    • Stubby claw hammer
    • Socket extensions
    • Socket wobble adapter
    • Electrical tape
    • Mechanic's wire
    • Vice grips
    • Telescoping magnet
    • Not in the photo, but there is the obligatory duct tape rolling around in my trunk somewhere too

    I remove the spare and add a light weight heavy duty compressor with flat plugs.
    Got about 10 flats over my previous cars and never I need the spare in 12 years. Repair on place. Then got a new tire if needed.

    Hopefully I won't get a sidewall flat or tire explosion. On long ride I put back the spare...

    Weight reduction . more space. 3x faster to get back on road.

    If there's anything the wife got the towing program for free.
