I keep a 150 peice craftsman socket set, Vice grips, channel locks, Zipties, Shop Rags, hammer, Duct tape, and a few newspaper bags in mine

The newspaperbags shop towles and a rag helped last weekend when a buddy broke his front chromoly shafts. We stuffed a few rags in the newspaper bags stuffed them in the axletubes and taped over the ends of the tubes so he could limp the jeep home 1.5hrs north after we pulled the inner shafts out of the Jeep on the trail .

How about a volt ohm meter and some torxs bits

BuckH Nov 9, 2012 01:15 PM

Yeah, torx bits are useful on any cherokee. And anyone who has a renix era jeep should have a ohm meter
