We've had a lot of discussions on survival kits and other stuff folks carry in their cubs, but I don't recall a thread that was specific to the tools people carry to make that repair that will get them home. I know of compact tool kits that the owners say will allow them to take the cub almost completely apart.
Specifically, which tools (what size and type of wrenches) are the most important to carry. In addition to a small socket set and a screwdriver set,I carry a few nuts and bolts that will hopefully keep the gear attached and the exhaust system functional.
I carry a plug socket and a couple of plugs as well as a few box end wrenches and safety wire and pliers. Hacksaw, hammer,duct tape, a few tie wraps and a couple of hose clamps have seemed sufficient so far. What other tools are important?
Specific suggestions are most helpful. I'd rather carry only what is needed rather than carry a bunch of tools that are not required.
