The kit

**abaddonxi** · 20th November 2005, 07:24 PM

There was a thread a while back of someone looking for a kit of stuff to take away/keep in the truck.

Thought it might not be a bad idea to make one up and keep it one of the more permanent threads.

Maybe break it down into: essentials, tools and parts, recovery gear, I wish.

Maybe one of the mods could set up a sticky for the thread of those headings for ease of future posting?

Any thoughts?

Cheers

8) good idea, i think there are a few 4wd companys that advertise this, but this might be a good subject to throw into the 'projects- tutorials threads,
i know i am getting an emergency puncture repair kit in the morning, if my tyre man has one

I picked mine up from Repco a few years ago, about $25.

I know that Opposite Lock had a good kit that I saw at Brisbane 4x4 and camping expo about 2 years ago - I think that it retailed for about $250 but it had everything you could think of. Will try and find it on the web and post a link.

that's the pic Grizzly - just couldn't for the life of me work out hoe to add the image from my computer - a bit like trying to service a P38a yourself :?

G'day Steinzy,

You can't add a pic directly from your computer - it's already gotta be served up on the web somewhere. All you do is link to it from here.

As a pointer you if you open an album you can upload it there and then link back to it - however if it's already on a website (like the opposite lock one) then you just link to the piccie they have on their website

Cheers 8)
