I'll also be tooled up (not as heavily!) - axle stands and jack too. even spare 5X114.3 alloys as the new ones have arrived (WOOOT!) 1200 / 1500 wet n dry - clay bar, hand glaze, primer and other assorted bodywork gubbins too for some reason  |

I'll be packing a fair bit - mainly in a bid to drop the ride height without having to use tools! I'll make sure I have that essential, gaffer tape...

Maybe the use of a spare wheel and/or tyre weld would be good too, especially if you're running a weird stud pattern wheel.

I'll have a couple of cans of tyre weld in my stash, along with my russian toolkit. I'll also have a small amount of fuel hose 7.9mm.
