Spares to take with


Well we're certainly not planning on using any of these as we have had the truck thoroughly checked out when all the mods were getting done but we'd hate to be stuck in the middle of nowhere with no spares or tools! So the idea is to be as self sufficient as possible.

  • Spare front and rear shock
  • Fan belt
  • Tyre repair kit
  • Magic epoxy steel
  • Fuel filter
  • 10L fully synthetic oil
  • Oil filter and centrifugal filter
  • Sump washers
  • Tool kit
  • Cable ties
  • Spade - for digging us out of holes and digging holes :-)
  • Hammer (Handy for setting up the ground tent and straightening wheels)
  • Laptop with Land Rover repair manuals
  • Safety triangles
  • WD40
  • Bulbs
