Recommended Tools

[mgrgpg]

I am finally getting a couple of storage boxes and was wondering what tools and supplies you guys would recommend to keep in the truck. I have had the truck for 5 months now, and am finally getting some time to fix it up and hopefully see what it can do on the trails soon. Thanks for the input.

Mark,

There's this in the FAQ section:

what the heck kind of link is that? LOL

[Mike Hippert]

Chris it looks like a redirect, it work and it brings you here http://www.d-90.com/faq/Towrec/TrRepairs.html. I think Ken likes taking the long way around.

It's the best I can do with my febble D-90.com saaviness. :(

Actually, CVC, I did the "Search for it here", and a new page came up with the results. I then just cut the shortcut and pasted on this page. I was sure there is a better way and my thanks to Mike for pointing out my ineptness. :)

AHHH that makes sense. The link looks funny because it is threw the search.:grin . ineptness come on lets not use big words like that, it makes me sound like something that I am not, or maybe i am???:confused Running over to the dictionary.

[chrisvonc]

haha... that search still works? I have to re-index the site then.

If we are talking trip preparation, here is something I made. Funny this is the 2ND time today I got to pimp this thing. Is everyone else onto something I should know about or planning to go somewhere fast? LOL
