A rough guide for equipment & spares for longer trips, or journeys to more remote places.<\/strong>
The list below is our starting point & is still much under review.<\/span> One of the main things it does for us is to highlight what we need to get or do before any major trip. Some of the items & spares would only be carried if the fixed item is suspect or approaching retirement (Although there is no spare replacement for the driver, past retirement, and definitely suspect).
These items would be in addition to the basic tool kit<\/span><\/a> & any recovery kit<\/a><\/span>, though necessary.
