Yep we go the dvd player for the back of the headrests. Little turd loves thomas the tank engine. I have nightmares about that tune being played over and over again. Keeps him happy though.
I tried to find the MAF sensor on my rig but can't see one. Perhaps it doesn't have one. 2000 GU TD42T?
It seems as if it's more about what to take with you and less about what you do to your truck.

Workshop manual, and some tools, once you have your list of everything you need to take, remembering some items may have 2 or 3 purposes.
lay it out with the father inlaws stuff. Don't double up and share equipment between the 2 vehicles.
Just remembered what about a water bladder or under body water tank? gotta have water.
2 4x4 3 to 4 people in each is a lot of water.
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

I talked with a guy a while ago who did 4WD tours for some 30 years. He said that sand tracks or whatever you want to call them get him out when bogged in 90% of the time. And much easier and not just in sand.
It has already been mentioned but only once so I thought to push that point a bit.

Ahh -- I will be following this thread closely..
We might see you out there snewin even though there is a lot of sand. We have a similar plan for winter 2014,
Our vehicle is a 98 - 4.5. So I am slowly getting the gear organised as well.
- 50mm suspension lift.
- Long range tanks both main & aux (4.5's are thirsty buggers)
- 60 ltr water tank installed in rear cargo area.
- and assorted spares.
