Odds and Ends to keep handy

A long time ago when we raced at Firebird in Boise on the tow home we stopped at a gas station for fuel....

Out of the darkness, at midnight, came what we thought was Bigfoot, but was only a fellow drag racer on the way home.....

The question he asked was "Did we have any trailer wheel bearings??"

My answer was that we didn't, but we would have in the future.........

From that day on we always carried spare wheel bearings, drum, electric activator, cotter pins and all the other stuff to do a roadside repair at 2:00AM on the road and 500 miles from home....

We also carry a Trailer Buddy for lifting the trailer wheel off the ground..

PS:
We carried all that stuff around for years and never needed it....maybe because we had it, we never had to use it??????????????????
