I have the Cruztools RoadTech H3. I also finally mounted my teardrop tool box. As usual (for me), I bought the wrong one and had to make it fit my Deluxe, but I digress. Dan at CruzTools was nice enough to sell me their teardrop tool pouch (empty) so I'm going to transfer my tools into the new pouch and carry them in my tool box. Now if I can just find a (cheap) way to lock the box.

I used to carry tools when I rode AMF era harleys. Today, I subscribe to a AAA roadside assistance plan. The only tools I carry are a cell phone and a Visa card.

I agree with the Roadside insurance and Visa card, but what about if it's Sunday evening and you are in the middle of Montana or worse yet on the toll road in Chicago.

How about a lil' ol multi-tool?

Davej I believe his name was posted on here a long while back about taking the softail toolbox to a locksmith I think and they put a lock on it for him not terribly expensive. Might try it out.
