Thought of another item. A real air pressure pump with a nice long hose and a good pressure gauge. Actually carry one in every car.

I didn't see an extra set of knuckles to replace the ones you have when you bust them while removing a stubborn fastener!

Garage
Actually get 2 torque wrenches. Many bolts torque to only 7 ft/lb. The 1/2" wrenches only goes down to 20 or 40 ft/lb. Get a good 3/8" and 1/2.
If it doesnt break the bank buy a good set of ratcheting (gearwrench) open/box-end wrenches 8-19mm every size check for the closeness of the ratchet click the smaller movement the better.



These 2 tool are very helpful if working on the suspension. Left tool to pull the control arms and toe links. The right tool mounted to the wheel hub will pop the axles easily.
