rubicon tool kit

alright this last weekend the group i was with had some breakage and almost everyone was unprepared. some friends of mine are talking about going on a rubicon trip this summer so i am trying to get input about what kind of spares and tools i might need as i will probably be running with mostly jeeps, if i go. heres how the truck is setup now and a list of mods that will most likely happen before i go
85 runner
4.88 gears
detroit locker rear
lock rite front
arb bumper with
9000lb ramsey winch
sliders and cage
33 12 bfg muds
(before i go)
crossover steering
new front shocks and hoops

what i carry for tools
full set of hand tools with 56mm hub socket and snap ring pliers
straps and other recovery gear
fuses
oil, powersteering fluid, gear oi,l and brake fluid
big hammer
hand wipes

alright what i am looking for is some experience with what you have broken or found to be indespensible on the trail. obviously there will be other stuff i bring but i would just like to see what everyone feels is essential to keep the trip of a lifetime from becoming a nightmare thanks in advance

Looks like you're pretty set. How about an extra birfield.
