[john massey]

I've had my 1977 Royale for nearly 2 years and have done simple maintenance
on it. Having followed this list since it started, I have what might be a
original question. : )

All the tools I have used are for typical standard automotive stuff. My
sockets and wrenches get to about 1" and stop.

What additional sizes of wrenches, sockets, etc and needed or would be
useful to maintain the GMC. I just got Tom Wagners Bearing Tool set, for
example.

If you are using the 2 air-bag system, it would be a good idea to have a 1 1/8
comb wrench and a socket to change the bag if you need to.

Gene has a good buyers checklist and safety checklist and Heinz has
posted his on-board spare parts list and his on-board toolkit. Maybe
someone can also a specialty tools list for the home workshop.
