Each outing we should have...

[XEON]

Well now that we have a few wheeling trips under our sleeve. Lets make a trail list of stuff we need for repairs.

A few large ones I can think of are:
Alternator/Fresh Battery
Radiator Fluid
AIR
BFH (Big Frigging Hammer)
U-Joints
Spare Axle parts
Fluids for everything on your Truck
Food and Drink (Dont forget that one :))

Add things that you think atleast one person should have to help out.

[wrangler]

sounds like a good list... I would also recomend fix a flat because it seals the tire and will atleast get you home. Most of the time air will not fix the problem.

Food and Drink (Dont forget that one :))

DUC TAPE

Some sort of Thick cable or extra strap to hold things together because whatever we break wont be on this list

anti freeze.

washer fluid

all sorts of tools

I know washer fluid is goofy but i like being able to see what i am doing

[sentinal02]

how about some gojo or other waterless hand cleaner. i know i hate driving with dirty/greasy hands. and you guys are forgetting the all important first aid kit and fire ext.

[Rockwell]

How about the all fixing Bungee Straps to go along with the duct tape. Ratchet type cargo straps might be good also, ya never know.

I have a fire extinguisher mounted on the sport bar.

[mybigredjeep]

i have more fire extinguishers than anyone could ever want.. lol

[wrangler]

is the engion of ur wrangler catching on fire a real risk? I never carry a extinguisher

[Freebird01]

i keep a small one in the zuk at all times. something is better then nothing.

i normally travel with an 40cal ammo can with some basic tools too

[wrangler]

i got basic tools..but no extinguisher

that's one of the big reasons battery tie downs are a must, but the battery isn't the only thing that can cause a fire. rupture the fuel tank or pop a fuel line and you end up with a dangerous spill, electrical shorts, hot exhausts sitting over dry grass, etc. the price of a few extinguishers is cheap insurance, the bigger the better.

as far as tools go, I always bring a lot more than the basics. flare nut wrenches, flaring tool, electrical meter, a whole kit of electrical repair connectors, specialty size sockets for the hub nut and t-case fill plugs, torx bits, shallow and deep sockets both SAE and metric, external torx sockets, allen wrenches, tie rod fork, small gear puller, soldering iron (i have a power inverter), propane and MAPP torches, u-joint adaptors for the ratchets, enough extensions to make about 12" (ever try to do a CPS sensor on a cherokee?), a large C-clamp for brake work, punches, Bolt out extractors (if you don't have these get some, they're great), assorted vice grips, small and large pry bars, torque wrench, and a few spring clamps (good for clamping hoses shut to keep the fluid in while working on them). all in all I pack a good portion of a garage full of tools.

[wrangler]

well hopfully i wont need all that...i just found an old red fire extinguisher in the back of my jeep but i have no idea if it works and there is no gadge.

[sentinal02]

well hopfully i wont need all that...

that's why I bring it all. Murphy states that as long as I bring it, I won't need it :lol:

[badzook]

Wow,

And I thought I brought alot of tools.:lol: You beat the hell outta me on that one........

I carry two Extinguishers and a pretty long list of Recovery Gear but, you never know when you'll need it..

[sentinal02]
