Hi folks,
I know we've had dozens of threads about roadside toolkits. Yesterday
evening I had a flat in the van, and realized three things I did not have:
- some kind of impermeable ground covering,
- a grunge coat, and
- a decent jack.
Fortunately I kept the loss to the pants, but I spent a

Yeah, I don't get it. They have smelly interiors from the ancient vinyl
seat covers, and their driving performance is sadly lacking. Plus they lack
any sort of attractive design.

The lower bushings are easily replaced (well, relatively easy if you
have a vise you can skweeze them in, and a BFH to pound the old ones
out). You should do both at the same time, and if that one is bad you

Appendectomies can wait. A pocket knife and a pen barrel will let you
do a roadside tracheotomy if the victim can't breathe. Also useful for
choking diners. It's very quick and simple and nearly anyone can do it.

with those pliers for every nut and bolt in the car! Thank you so much
Man! That While you're in there-itis is really extreme! ;-) I keep
running into that on my 91 300D.
BTW, the rear suspension pickup points have a place that seems
susceptible to rusting - is there a easy fix? i can send photos if the
above is too vague...

Technically, sex would have to be involved to meet that classification.
Since you've had a headache for the past 6 months, and the laundry is never
done.. Well.. the mood just hasn't been right... so you may get a pass
on the home-o-sexual tag. Of course, jury could still be out over
possession
Plus the upper nut is enclosed in a metal box making putting a wrench
on the hex impossible to do. Any ideas?

There are clips on the top left and right of the console. If one jumped
off, the owner might not have known how to put it right. Or, the AC fan
