its generally a very good idea, too,
keep a bound note pad with notes in your glove compartment,
on the wiring, wire colors, wire gauges, relays used ,
ground locations, fuse amps, fuel and oil and air filter part numbers, type of oil used,
dates on oil/filter changes, brake fluid replacement dates, when the brake pads/calipers etc were last changed etc.
keep a log on, when alignments were done, what size and brand of tires you use,
and visually inspect the tires, brake fluid and oil levels every few days
and any time you remove a wheel, inspect the brake rotors, pads and ball joints and if the car/trucks up on a lift,
it certainly helps to visually inspect the u-joints, ball joints and do a suspension lube
