An "Ass Gasket" is one of those pre-made toilet bowl seat paper templates. These are one of better inventions of the 20th century. :D

Oh and I forgot. Need to post note on dash. "Do not Eat UFOs."

Unidentified Fryed Objects. eek!

good list Owen-

I would add:
--spare tire(s)
--various blocks of woods for chocks or blocking up axles/ grease gun and lots of spare tubes of grease
--cb radio: still the best way to get local directions, or chat when you're bored or find out where the cops are if you happen to be travelling "speedily". Only effective on well travelled roads tho... sounds like you will be taking the less beaten path (which I commend you for) so it may not be so helpful

have fun!

...lap top with "Steets and Trips" unless you know where you are going, 12V inverter for lap top or whatever, fan belts, Red Bull (24 pack), Tylenol, get the big jar, good stereo for when there is NO RADIO TO BE HAD!!!...worlds' finest sleeping bag if you intend to spend anytime in South Eastern Oregon while travelling through the mountains eek! (cut out feet holes and drive with it on)

Oh, and a companian as well as the dog...

I'd go with ya if I had some more time to spare but I am "almost" out for 2002. I presume this is the GT21 pick up trip??? I take it that the WD-40 is for "crab'in...Remember to bring back a "boooshell of blue channels". I'll bring the 'Old Bay. I bought some in Texas.

Best of luck,...Lenny :D
