Previously you mentioned a axle nut socket. When I changed out our stock driveshaft flanges 3 differant size sockets were needed to take the pinion nuts off. Maybe include a kit that has all 3? 
Not to mention some Red Loctite?

Is this a repair that would ever be done out on the trail? If so, do you recall the three sizes of sockets?

Not necessarily a "trail repair" item. Just figured if you were going to include a axle nut socket why not include all 3 just incase. I can only see a need if you broke a Drive Shaft and were going to replace it with a CV Style replacement that required differant yokes.

Not sure if it would fit in the bag but I like to bring a couple of 12" or 18" pieces of 4"x4" or 4"x6" pine. It is a very innexpensive replacement for the aev jack base, a wheel chock for repairs, an impromptu hammer or fuel for the camp fire.
And you can never go wrong with a small can of WD40

Woods,
Any idea when we could expect your tool kit to be available? Any ballpark on price?
The only reason I ask is that Sears has a big tool sale right now, but I'd rather give you my money for a complete kit.

Almost looks like a girls purse with all the stuff in there.
