What Tools?

[Threehz]

So this Saturday I'm flying to LA to go check out an E30, if all goes well then I will be driving it back the 500miles home. I'm definitely bringing a bag of tools but I'm wondering if there is anything specific I should bring?

Screwdrivers
Metric Sockets
Metric Crescents
Monkey
Needle Nose
Pliers

What else?

B.F.H.

if you cant fix it with a Big Fucking Hammer, it ain't really broken.


seriously though, maybe a multi-meter, elec. fittings and such, water pump pliers, assorted zip-ties, duct tape, mechanics wire.

all sorts of things to consider.

The way I see it is that if you bring it, you wont need it.

[Pantless Spency]

beer, the ultimate tool encase the e30 really gives you issues.

[Threehz]

Luckily beer shouldn't be too hard to get on the road.

Electrical stuff is def a good idea thanks.

And that's always true N2MYE30.

Sounds good

Vice grip
Socket set
Set of wrenches
Set of alan keys
Fuses
Light bulbs for brake lights
Extra ruber hose length
Duck tape or duct tape

A good set of CD's to keep you company, or o e of those tape adapters if it still has a ape deck.

You didn't mention which engine so here's some other things to consider...

Multi meter, wire cutter/crimp tool, electrical tape

Having a can of fix a flat is great to get you through a bind in the middle of the night when everything is closed and you got a tire going down

Spare coil, cap and rotor and drive belts if you got access to those parts

how about a giant ass light so if its dark you can see?

...wish i brought a light.

How about a girl to blow you while you're cruising down the road?

Haha funny you say that because I told the girlfriend she should come so she can give me head on the road, and she got all excited, but then I realized it wasn't worth the 70$ plane ticket.

You have the wrong gf then. :p

[slammin.e28]

Everything you need should be in the trunk toolkit. If it's missing, you don't need it. This is how I live my life.

[mikeedler]

wallet and a cell phone. if it does break, you probably won't be able to fix it without parts.

maybe some electrical tape, a wrench set and some screwdrivers if something comes loose.

Box cutters...
