Scott Brady, the founder of Expedition Portal and the publisher of Overland Journal, posted an excellent article on the Portal on outfitting a vehicle for overland travel. He covers the following:
- Safety Equipment
- Navigation
- Communication
- Tools and Spares
- Proper Recovery Points
- Recovery Equipment
- Loading and Lashing
- Light Truck All-Terrain Tires
- Suspension
- Bull Bar and Self Recovery
It’s a well thought out list. I recommend it, if you’ll be heading out into the back country. On the Expedition Portal forum other people chimed in with lists of their own. Forum member, coastsider, added a nice gear/camping/maintenance list.
