Hey guys,

I'm just trying to get an idea of tools and parts that I should be carrying.

I generally don't go more than 300-400 kms from Melbourne. But i also don't want to be taking the whole workshop with me.

Keen to get everyone's thoughts......

Cheers!

Hey mate - short distance from rescue - UHF, mobile, water, basic toolkit, etc. are you heading off-road or touring? What sort of tracks? It's horses for courses so if we understand more you're setup and plans can give some better advice.

Yea as jas said every trip is different. So what are you looking at? Or just a general overview..

I'm looking for a general overview.

I would only be doing weekend trips locally in Victoria.

Like I know to carry the basics like:
Socket Set
Screw Driver Set
Spanners
Coolant
Water
Oils
Snatch Strap and D Shackles

But just wanted to get a few ideas of the things that people
always carry to equip the best way I can!

Tyre repair kit, basic spanners to suit, small tool box, thats all I take if going to the Murray.
enough for small repairs, anything bigger will require a tilt tray anyway
