I bought my 100 used with 129,000 miles on it. How do I find out what tools I'm supposed to have in the toolbag? It basically has a roll bag with two Velcro straps on each end to secure it. Does anyone have the complete part list that is supposed to come with the vehicle and are there other tools that I can add to it that would make my life easier?
Off the top of my head, I can recall a combination wrench 12/14mm a screw driver the tools for lowering the spare tire and cranking the factory jack. A lug wrench 22mm and a cheater pipe.
Your dealer could probably give you an inventory, but its probably better if you just put in a bunch of common tools to do minor work at the least. You can get as carried away as you like but 8, 10, 12, 14, 17, 19mm are common sizes for wrenches and sockets as well as a bit driver with various bits.
Make note of the tools that you use when you work on your truck and include those.
I just put together a tool bag with the tools I would commonly use to do anything on my truck. Extra items include gorilla tape, OBD scanner, box knife, nitrile gloves, mini led flashlight, microfiber cloth, old man glasses for seeing the little stuff, etc.
This bag just stays in the truck behid the second row seats along with the jumper cables. Better to have it and never use it than to need it and not have it.
I only open the stock tool roll to get out the stuff to drop the spare. Other than that, it just takes up room.
I have a medium-complete tool bag because I go in somewhat remote settings. I'm sure others have posted many tool kits for many purposes over the years on MUD that can be found with a search. Here's what I haul around in 2 bags in the rear:
Old iPad with ’04 FSM in PDF files
OBDII code reader
Multi-tip screwdriver (small and large)
Spare tire removal tool/jack tool
Vice grips
Gloves (both vinyl and cotton)

Seriously? What to carry kind of depends on what you do and where you go.
