Thread: Perentie Tool Kit

OK - So what should actually be in the Perentie's tool kit?

Got my Perentie FFR privately a couple of weeks back, the vendor bought it auction last October but hadn't really used or touched it (800kms since sold).
Anyway I emptied out the tool lockers, door pockets etc and laid everything out on Saturday.


Overall pretty happy, this is what I found:

- Locker key (in its pouch in the bottom of the driver's door)
- Jack, Base & Handle
- Wheel brace
- Warning triangles
- Galvanised pouring can
- 2 wheel chocks
- Jerry can pourer (bit dodgy looking, Mil Spec?)
- Tyre pump ( Mil Spec? Cheap and nasty)
- Box of assorted bulbs, valve cores, valve caps, valve remover & 3 brass discs on keyrings
- Tool Roll containing:
- 10" shifter
- Philips No 3 x 150mm screwdriver
- Philips No 4 x 200mm screwdriver
- 5mm x 100mm flat screwdriver
- 12mm combination spanner
- 14mm combination spanner
- 17mm combination spanner
- 19mm combination spanner
- 1/2" socket "L" bar
- 1/2" x 9/16" open end spanner
- 1/2" x 9/16" offset ring spanner
- Tyre pressure gauge


Spanners are all Sidchrome, screwdrivers would seem to have had some replacements, one Fuller, one Crescent while the oldest is a Stanley
Tyre pump I can only assume is not original (even if replaced by the army) as its a really cheap bit of gear, similarly the jerry can pourer.


Things I'd have thought would be there would be a 10mm combination spanner, a No 2 Philips and a pair of pliers


Also a bit of a mystery are the brass discs as they have no markings

Any ideas on what's missing?
