Hi,

When we go on a trip with the Westfalia, I grab a bunch of tools put it all in
an old sock and put it under the driver seat. I usually forget something but
with a bit of improvising you can go along way.

Therefore it is time to put a dedicated tool kit together.

Any suggestions what tools to bring on a trip?

3/8" metric socket set
screwdriver set (2 x flathead, 2 x philips)
needle nose pliers
adjustable wrench

What about parts?
hose clips
oil
coolant
belts - Anyone tried to use the adjustable belt made up of plastic links?
