Camper tools

[Dooitorbust]

What are you guys packing for tools in your travel trailer and/or truck? Sometimes I feel like I pack too much, but I would rather have it and not need it.
Post up your essentials if you wish.

Tire iron, impact gun for Jack's, 12 volt compressor, sockets, assorted pliers and screwdrivers.

I pack the same stuff plus a full set of Standard and metric wrenches, 3/8 drive set, two different size bottle jacks, hammer, punches, chisels, hand cleaner, rags, zip ties, mechanics wire, cordless drill with bits, a step bit and so on and so on.

Enough to change a transmission. Probably still not enough lol

My favourite tool to carry on the sled/bike, and obviously trailer is the knipex plier wrench 7" or 10". Amazing tool. And zip ties, and Würth vulcanizing tape. Those 3 simple things have got me out of a few jams. Basic socket/bit set in the trailer.

Nice to see I'm not the only one who packs a truck load of tools haha.

I also carry a spare axle bearing kit and shackles, I've seen both those go in deep rough back roads.ether and air compressor as well.....if you ever have to break a bead on a tire the trailer jack when hooked to truck works well.

That's funny, I was actually just having this discussion with a friend.
If you have a food saver, pack all your new bearings in grease, toss them in a bag with all the hardware and vacuum pack them. Clean, sealed and packed bearings ready to go.
Good idea with the trailer jack as well.

Never thought of the vac packed bearings. Good idea!

Engine coder so I can clear an engine light in case the truck goes into limp mode. And pretty much everything else mention.

 

[Ronaha]

That's right I always have my OBD2 code reader on my camping list $80 at crappy tire and it has to clear codes

As well as most tools listed, I carry an assortment of shark bite water fittings, for Pex water line and a pair of cutters. Leaks are a PITA when camping....
