What is your goal here? If it is to have commonly failed parts, you can get rid of half your list.

The things I have may be of interest to a future buyer wanting original good parts.

Our door sills are plastic and don't fail?

My door sills are aluminum and get roughed up with use.

Fuel pump can be had at any autoparts store, no reason to stockpile that.

I list a fuel sender, not a pump. Mine jumps around sometimes. I bot one and did not put it on yet.

As for the shifter knob, whats that all about? Those don't fail, lot less needing two of em.

My leather covered shift knobs (My VX has two levers and knobs), and console cover get scratched and having nice spares seems advisable to a future owner.

Intake gaskets, easily had at autoparts store.

When I need them, I want them in hand.

Isuzu vehicles are around for now and common parts are available- For now. Some items are just insurance for me.

Thanks for your input.

Ahhhh, your post sounded like a starting point, as in, this is your starting point of things to get. I am curious about your aluminum sills. Definitely not stock. Are they Ebay ones?

My stockpile includes:
-half a dozen CVs, and one complete set with the actual axle shafts as well
-two sets of wheels and tires
-full set of gaskets for everything under the hood
-extra alternator
-AC compressor.
-Misc fasteners.
-fuel pump assembly,
-extra gaskets for both windows
-Bunch of random interior stuff(I trail mine as about as aggressive as we get, except maybe Bigmeat and I have never had any problems with the shift knobs getting torn up? That leather is pretty thick. Of course, my center console lid is in perfect shape too, so maybe I am gentler on the interior than I think)
-extra headlight bulbs, non HID and HID
-air box,just in case I decide to do a snorkel upgrade one day
-tie rods and ends
-steering gear box
-3 sets of manual hubs, 1 superwinch, the other two are aisins
-drive flanges
-fuel rail

I would like to add:
-coil packs
-drive shaft
-starter
-wish I could do a non-tod transfer case
-ECM
-master and booster cylinders
maybe some other little stuff I am not thinking of now.
