Are you planning an off-road adventure soon? Before you jump in your 4×4, there is a lot more to being prepared than taking along some food and water. It’s essential that you are well clued up on everything you need before going off road.
Those who are experienced 4×4 drivers would never set off on an off-roading trip without a handful of essential items. Luckily for you, we have put them all together in this helpful guide!
A Full Tank
This may seem obvious but it’s definitely an essential requirement so we thought it was best that we included it in our list. You probably won’t be speeding past any petrol stations whilst off-road, so it’s important that you have a full tank before setting off.
A Spare Tyre & Accessories
A spare tyre is important whenever you’re driving somewhere, but it’s especially important when you are off on your off-road adventure. You should also make sure that you have the correct tyres for the type of terrain that you are going to encounter.
A Winch
A winch is one of the most important tools to have in your essential off-road toolkit. This is a recovery tool that will come in handy if you ever find yourself in a sticky situation – and it happens more often than you think. It’s a lifting device that consists of rope, cable or chain, that winds around a horizontal rotating drum.
First Aid Supplies
It’s better to be safe than sorry! You might need more than a simple plaster, and it’s important that you have all the essential first aid items with you. Whether you seriously injure yourself or it’s just a nasty scratch – it’s best to be well prepared.
