Get Home Emergency Tools - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've owned my 71 K5 for a little over a year. I'm still a newbie and trying to learn as much as possible about my truck. This weekend I learned that I should have had an Emergency Get Home Tool kit while I was stalled on the side of the road.

What would you put inside an Emergency Get Home Tool box? I have .50 cal ammo box, which measures 11L x 5.5W x 7H that I will be carrying in my truck from now on. This is what I'll be packing so far. Any suggestions? Constructive criticism? Dos and dont's?

1) Standard wrench set (5/16-1in)
2) Vise Grips (small and large)
3) Screw drivers (Phillips and Flat Head)
4) Duct tape
5) Electrical tape
6) Loctite
7) Fuses

What else would you have? Socket wrench/sockets?
