Water proof matches, or a flint. A large zip lock bag to put snow so you can ice your back when it gets sore from doing stupid things.:face-icon-small-con

I just did as well! Thanks for the heads up. Mine was 9.95 total. For anyone else its ebay number # 180177669527

Nice!
Even better, I ordered 3 of them with only 4.95 shipping. Got one for me and a couple for friends. Merry Christmas.

I still have the channel locks that I took a grinding wheel to to accomplish the same tool for free.

for those with the 144" assault some retard at polaris figured they should have 14mm head bolts on the axle nut :deadhorse: needless to say my buddies with the 155"s were happy i could tighten there track but not mine on first ride. I sure was mad b/c im sure i could have himarked them if not for the ratcheting (slight mods) guess thats the only thing i got to complain about it and i was a die hard doo doo er

its getting my version of a 2 wheel kit with all the same size bolts so i dont have to carry a toolbox to adjust it.

A tow strap or I prefer to use a ratchet strap, allows for me to pull stuff up (A arms & Skis) tight and can be used as a tow strap as well.

I was thinking about this so I took a look at my tool kit and noticed I had left out the shock adjuster, I put it back in. My point is make sure you can change, fix all of the little stuff in the shop. If not put the tool it in the kit so you can. Easier to see how stuff works in a warm shop than on a cold trail. Then add the wire, tape, zip ties, matches, flint, lighter, safety blanket etc.

I carry mechanic latex gloves to keep my hands sexy and smooth... ;)

No really, I do, very nice to have clean hands after wrenching. All my buddies are washing their hands with snow after wrenching. brrrrrrrr

To be fare though, Drape wears these gloves while he rides, when he eats his sandwich and when he takes a leak.
Now stop posting and go make my desk!!!
