Before heading off to Nova Scotia next week, leaving from Atlanta, what are some good additions to the stock tool kit as a precaution? Obviously nothing to big, bulky, or heavy and hopefully the extra weight will be a sacrifice to the gods and keep the gremlins away. FWIW new belt and rear bearings just went in. | ||

AAA or AMA membership card. Seriously. | ||

My first suggestion would have been everything to change the belt but you've covered that! A multi screwdriver that has some torx bits included. Adjustable wrench. Allen wrenches. Wire ties. Tire plug kit. Electrical tape. Needle nose pliers. 3/8", 7/16" and 1/2" wrenches. That's a good start anyway. Enjoy Nova Scotia! I've been there twice on my way to Newfoundland. Great people and beautiful scenery. | ||

I'd carry Imodium A-D in place of the Kaopectate. | ||

Teeps "This: https://www.russbrown.com/join-bam.html Been a member for 15 years... like Kaopectate better to "have it" and not need it; than need it an not have it!" it says the program is open to US residents only, so if the OP has an issue in Canada he won't be able to get any help there. It's too bad they don't let the Canadians participate. | ||

I signed up. | ||
| Ourdee |
Yan, Do they call you very often? | ||
| Steveford |
Cell phone and/or lap top, tobacco, thermos, sandwich, credit card. That should do it. | ||
| Ourdee |
And a half gallon of gas in a spare can. | ||

Forgot toilet paper. It's always something. | ||

My personal recommendation is to take a motorhome and trailer with the required straps. Ageing can make you see this way.  | ||
