Tremor in cab stored Essentials?

Those swing cases block the Ford bed lights and button to activate, right?
Eh, a little, I can still reach it. But overall yes. Ultimately, I feel like they provide a lot more value than partial blockage of the lights.
 
I'm late to the party, but isopropyl alcohol and a pair of latex gloves
 
That I exactly the information I need to begin to build a “critical fuses” box. It will take some time to figure out, but I’m guessing that I’ll be able to narrow it down to a few vitals and hopefully that limits the variety of styles and amperages a little. Thank you very much for answering my question. 👊🏼🍻
Did you build a “critical fuses” box?
If so, can you share what you came up with?
Cheers 🍻

I still haven’t gotten fully involved in it. I started a while back and then it has fallen by the wayside. I have a handful of the standard 10 to 30 amp fuses. I haven’t gotten around to finding any of the less common ones. Here’s a link to a site that has been pointing me in the right direction.

This is an awesome list and really helpful for me as I continue to build out my kit.

A few things I have in my set to consider for yours: a breaker bar, torque wrench, socket set (with common sizes for lugs), battery booster pack, reflective road triangles, and electric road strobe lights.

Given how comprehensive your kit is I had also had expected to see some sort of shovel and something to kneel on when changing a tire in your kit.

Definitely a good point, check your state rules. I found out that per my states DOT, trucks rated 1 ton and greater are required to have emergency signaling stuff if traveling outside cities. You are supposed to have least three of any of the following; flares, fusses, lanterns or, triangles. Not enforced well but comes in handy if coming on a wreck or breakdown. I now have a reflective vest, flares, and triangles after a scare on the interstate with an overturned car in the passing lane. Long story but really wish would have had more than a reflective vest in the 40+ minutes it took for emergency response to arrive.

Ahh good points and I just realized my list is incomplete in terms of what is actually in the truck haha. I was lazy and when I said tool kit, that included torque wrench and socket set haha. I also have a NOCO battery booster in the back. But road triangles and strobe lights and a breaker bar would be a great add! And I mean I do have two shovels in the truck hahaha
