JB Weld. 
Headlight flashlight (also helpful�during those nighttime strolls) and\or�magnetic-base light.
SAFETY GLASSES to keep undercar crap from falling into your eyes. 
Folding extending mechanic's mirror.� Some spots you just can't see into. �

CV joint screw tool, ratchet and extension to go with it.
a good solid ball peen hammer
assortment of 13mm and other metric wrenches and sockets.
assortment of screw drivers of various types ..I love those 4 in 1

needle noise pliers
