P1000 What Spare Parts to Keep On-Hand?

[OnTheJob]

It's happened to me, bent a tie-rod the Friday before Memorial Day Weekend and it took 4-5 days to get a new one delivered, also not anything my local dealers keep in stock. Killed my weekend - I ordered two. I see recently someone needed a front brake line part. I know I've seen a list of tools with a partial list of spare parts to carry with you. What I'm thinking is a bin in the garage with Honda Pioneer spare parts so I don't have to wait 4-5 days for delivery. I can get back up in running in a couple hours.

What do you think?

3-4 tie rods and a front axle, should hold you over for the roughest terrain unless you’re just a REALLY bad driver.

Or really unlucky. Pick up some of the push clips too. I think you can get them in a bag of 100 for pretty cheap on Amazon. Toss some in your glovebox/toolbag.

I usually take a wiring harness, a couple steering racks, 5-6 ball joints, extra ecu, extra knuckles all around, all the nuts and bolts for A arms, 4 tie rods, 10 axles, a couple wheel bearings, cotter pins, have patch kit, valve stem replacement, ball joint press, vice in the receiver hitch, 4 extra tires mounted, ball joint removal tool, Band tool for the boots, c02 kit for reseating beads, 20 foot of wire drive shaft adapter, grease, loctite, silicone, rubber cement and a little scotch. Pretty much just the basics

I've looked used the search bar, but can't find the answers.... Are both front axles the same part number? Are tie rods the same part number?

Tie-rods and front axles are interchangeable L/R. The rear axles are not as one side is slightly shorter than the other.

Thanks for the balljoint. The vise definitely came in handy

You're guaranteed to not have a problem is you carry all of that stuff! lol

I wouldn't have let a bent tie rod stop me, they can be fixed easily, or cut and a sleeve welded on, or something to get me going for the weekend! There's always someone ready to make a few bucks on a friday evening or Saturday of a long weekend

Last bent tie rod I saw took out the brake line as well. Those are now in the box as well.
