Yeah it has occurred to me to check the fit of the lug wrench on all the lugs and make sure it is solid. That said, I will pack my Craftsman breaker bar and deep socket set with the kit.

And yeah, I would not bet my life on scissor jacks. The bottle jack that comes with Gen 1 Expy's seems a lot more stout.

And a 6" extension to go between the socket and the breaker bar! Couple of 13/16" sockets in case you lose one. If corrosion gets under the "skin" of a lug-nut it will make it swell to where you cannot get a 21mm/13/16" socket on, so squirt them with Corrosion Block or similar every time you have them off.
