Thread: What recovery gear do you carry?

Two snatch straps...one for toyotas and one for patrols...don't want any cross contamination or interbreeding.

I ticked the titanic option ....
prolly wouldn't get stuck if I didn't carry so much "stuff"

.... usual kit would include any/all of the following

electic winch
gloves (many)
snatch strap
spare snatch strap (new)
winch extension strap
2 x tree protector/equaliser straps
2 x snatch block
Asstd. rated shackles (dunno how many are there)
Hi-lift jack
Hi-lift wheel lifter
short chains and "fittings" to turn hi-lift into hand winch
2 x drag chains (see above)
Hi-lift bullbar lift attachment
shovel
Ladas' front recovery points
2 x rec. hooks on bullbar
rear towbar rec. attachment

.... may or may not be "recovery stuff"
bottle jack
tarps (asstd)
compressor
tyre deflators
tyre pressure guage
tyre repair plugs
torches/worklights
axe
block splitter
chainsaw
chainsaw fuel, oil and kit
first aid kit
ropes
tiedown straps
comprehensive toolbox

Normally I am always in radio contact with base. But normally have jumper leads and snatch strap. If I am trying to get somewhere then the chainsaw is your best friend for trees over the road.

About the same as most. Must get my winch fixed.

Very handy, especially if you can tie a cob & co with it.

I'll try and find a diagram.

2x 3.2t shackles
1x Snatch Strap
1x Tow Strap

This is in the Patrol, and it's all we need around the farm. If I take it 4WDing (which I don't do often as it's our only working vehicle) I usually go with someone who has additional gear.

When I replace my Fairmont in a few months (Prob with a D2) I will kit it up properly (slowly, I'm poor...)
