Here's a list posted here several months back. Not sure who put it up, but I copied it and think a lot of it is right on. What you carry also depends on which model you have, mileage, condition and recent maintenance. For example some people say you should carry a spare DI cassette.
Have fun on the trip and keep the Saab between the ditches.
