but the advantage to that is it will help keep your beer warm!

A UHF radio at very least, sat phone or epirb better.
Shovel, lots of water and fuel.

Beers for sharing when you get bogged and spin a good yarn around the camp fire.
Oh and research average temperatures depending on what time of year etc.
Even in summer, the desert can be cold and especially hot.50 degree plus in the sun.

Have a great trip, meet the locals and enjoy what we have to offer which is oodles.

I'd say this is something like a two part epoxy to plug things up with, if not look up liquid metal or some other epoxy/metal like substance that can be used to plug up holes etc. Goes hard enough to be able to tap and thread, can be used to plug a holed radiator or other metal part to hold in critical liquids.
