I do carry a spare belt, just did not include it. We each go to different kind of places. Sometimes I've been a full days drive from any place to get parts/tools, so I go prepared.

If I've had my wheels off for what ever reason I go through a torque sequence over some milage to ensure they tighten down. Once they wheel nuts stay tight for several days I back off and only check them every week or so. With a 5th wheeler and a small Class C I only need to get about 110 lbs of torque. Once a truck I was a passenger in lost two lug nuts and remaining three were all lose. I took notice.

In reality I carry three torque wrenches, 1/4 for inch pounds, 3/8 inch for my hitch and a 1/2 inch for the wheel nuts. Also got a long breaker bar if needed.

I suggest using rugged clear plastic containers for the tools too. And take pictures as you layer tools in them. I forget which box has certain tools and sometimes wonder if I even had it on board but the pictures soon sort out the frustration.

As my coach is a little older it requires more electrical Band Aids than anything else. Multimeter and solder iron are both used too often along with a couple boxes of connectors.

Air Pressure Gauge - use this before travel on all tires

Hose clamps

Stainless steel screws and nuts and bolts

Fuses - lights

Oil and one set of filters.

Battery charger

I probably carry more than Most but still never Enough - - -
