Recently bought a 01 I infinity qx4 which has a jack and a rod but no lug wrench. What else is in the missing kit bag? I am going to try and change spark plugs and someone mentioned that the kit has toll or tools that make getting the plug under the TB easier, Anyone know about this and or where I can get a kit new or used, thanks

For most owners, the special tool bag is long gone, but no need to worry; having "wobble" extensions for your ratchet is what will get you through this. Here's the link to the best and most detailed step by step video for removing/installing the plugs:

(it's in two parts and this is the passenger side plugs)

Have frun!

No way around it. The throttle body has to be removed just to take the coil off that one plug to get access to the plug with a standard socket and extension. There are no special tools that can make this any easier.
