Toolbox & Emergency Supplies

Some people have asked about the tools that I carry on the road with me for road trips. This is the minimal set of tools that will fit into this 12" toolbox. After 3 years of driving this van, I haven't had a problem yet that couldn't be solved with what you see here.

A: Hose clamps for pinching off the Espar line if it ever has trouble starting. Never had any problems with the Espar, but some have, so this is just in case...

B: Tool for manually raising & lowering the electric bed.

C: Offset screwdriver, so handy for the van's tight spaces.


In addition to that toolbox, I keep a set of emergency/backup supplies & hardware stuff. Items that you may not be able to identify from the picture are:

D: Folding metal shovel
E: 12 volt air compressor
F: Spare parts for the Espar heater
G: Water Bandit for pesky spigots
H: Water funnel for gravity fill when no hose is available
I: OBD II reader for Sprinter error codes (and resetting them)
J: Lug wrench for Method wheels
