what's the most common thing you have to repair? I imagine you don't do any major work out on the road. Tires,brake chambers,air lines?

Ah, forgot, I'm building my shop to do work for friends and whoever else needs repairs and modifications on their vehicles. I have been doing it for a long time, but actually stepping up to do much more and easier with a 40x60 shop with a lift instead of a 2 car garage with a jack.
