Off Road And Overlanding Gear You NEED
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 сер 2024
- If you're into Overlanding or off-roading then I don't even need to ask if you're a gear head because the only way to be into either of those lifestyles you have an intolerable itch that never seems to go away, no matter how much Overlanding or off-roading gear you buy. With all the new products coming to market and various different ways to transport your items it can get a little overwhelming to try and make sure you have what you need over all the things that you probably want. In this video, I go over the absolute NEEDS for 2021 that everyone new to Overlanding and off-roading needs to have in their rigs. We will cover water storage solutions for those long overland trips and recovery gear that's essential but won't break the bank. These items aren't going to be the most glamorous items, but they're going to make sure you can get out and explore without breaking the bank, but more importantly, get back home when that time comes. In my humble opinion, there are 5 categories of Overlanding and off-road gear that you NEED to have in your rig when taking off into the unknown and that is exactly what we cover in this video.

Folks, I overlanded and traveled Europe in a pure stock 69 Volvo 145 station wagon, depends on where you go, but to overland you do not need a 4x4. Take a tow strap, shovel and jack, you do not need a high lift jack, nor do you need a winch, no, not if you don't go in deep mud holes, or go rock crawling. Traction boards, not really, been going off road for 50+ years, never used them, learn to dig, fill with local debris like rocks, logs, even small twigs can help. Tire repair kit should be in every vehicle, as well as a first aid kit and fire extinguisher. Any way, all kinds of folks have opinions, but to overland, you must have (really really want) a reliable vehicle, and above all take your common sense.
I agree with you .
Gas. Air compressor. Food . Water. Fire extinguisher. Navigating gear.. 6 of the top 5!
Thanks for the comment!
1. Ursa Minor hardtop replacement. 2. Water purification system. 3. AEV front and rear bumpers 4. Warn 9.5 4. fit your suspension to your vehicle after it has been modified and fully loaded, not before.
I ran the same ko2s you do. I did a trail in Colorado called red cone , and aired down, I popped the sidewall of both of my front ko2s within a half mile of the trail. The first tire I changed with my spare, the 2nd I didn't have an option for , and didn't have a tire repair kit. Trying to limp off the trail ( while stopping to put air in the tire losing air , it ended up coming off the rim and snapping my steering tie rod thing and I was stranded on the trail. I ended up dumping the ko2s for km3s for their sidewall durability, and have the very same Boulder tools tire repair kit in my Jeep now. Side note I don't trust tires at all anymore no matter what the tire is
Been using Ko2s for yrs. Air down to 15 psi on jk unlimited for technical stuff. I could probably go down to 10 psi if I was Crawling. Never had any tire or rim problems. But I'm not hitting rocks with my foot buried in the peddle.
@@utahboy17 I've never done that. When it happened to me I was at 15. Both cuts were right by the rim
Solid advice. Have to agree about the first aid kits. Probably one of the most overlooked item
I think it needs to be 1st on list. Good Advice I agree . HAPPY OVERLANDING
Thanks for the advice, I'm getting into overlanding and I feel like I always learn something new with all of the videos I watch! I have a 3rd Gen 4runner I'll be taking out
No worries! I did the same thing you're doing when I first started and it was super overwhelming. I can promise you that after every trip there will be something you want to change or a new idea on how to load out your rig. I'd love to see the setup you came up with when you take it out!
Have so much fun just remember, overlanding rig is different from.a crawler. That is different.
@@daywithmike4892 I agree!
This is the first video I've seen of yours. You are great, I love your dimenor! Keep em' coming. I'm new to this but you have a great to to the point approach. I learned a lot, thank you
Appreciate the kind words!
Just watched your video, instantly subscribed. . Solid advice. I’m just getting into Overlanding.
Right on! If you have any questions about anything dude feel free to get ahold of us, we'd be happy to help.
Great list. Just getting started myself and came across your channel. Super helpful.
Right on! Glad it could help, dude!
Good info, nice video. Planning to get my wife a TRD Pro 4 runner to start our overlanding adventures. When we're ready to gear i'll come back and use your links.
That would be greatly appreciated!
Hi there. I was wondering if you started over landing he Runner?I’m trying to get my wife onboard to take her Runner. Thanks!
Love the video! Hope to see you at the overland expo in az!
We're going to try and make it!
Thanks man for the info. I’m getting started into off-road camping and gathering stuff that we need definitely looking into the 7 gallon aquatainer will be using a ground tent for a while tho... great video and just subscribe to your channel
Right on! If you guys have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Everyone has their own system and way of doing things, but I'll be happy to share whatever info I have with you.
@@roamingwithjosh thanks!
Great advice!!! Cant wait to see more videos
A lot of good advice. I would emphasize the medical kit much higher. Also make sure that you have a kit that can handle sprains and breaks. As important, get some training. The more remote you go, the more likely that you will need to care for a injury for some period of time. If it is serious injury, and you are pretty far into the bush with not cellphone or satellite phone or satellite emergency responder, it could be hours (many hours before help comes. It could make the difference between life and death! This is born of some very direct experience!
I totally agree and I'm the first to say that I started taking myself further away from help and had very little by way of first aid. Most people overlook it and don't think that anything will happen to them until it does. I appreciate the input and real-life experience!
Amen, an ifak/small trauma kit was the first thing I added to my subaru. Recovery gear and that went in at the same time🙌🏻
@@adalberto.valdez Absolutely!
One of the most overlooked items that a first aid kit should have is a tourniquet
Hello there! Just found your channel and subbing now👍 Sounds like some solid tips, looking forward to more videos 🤙-Josh
Right on! I appreciate it!
good video subbed
Appreciate it!
Tip, put your tire plugs in a sealed baggie or they well be dry and useless when you need them.
That's a great point. Thank you!
Well said I think I have everything you said except the tent part but im not doing overnights yet. Thank you for the info take care and stay safe.
Thank you for the comment and you too!
Personal experience the absolute first thing I require is recovery points on the vehicle someone else might have the gear but if there's nowhere to put it to on your vehicle you stay stuck and then you will need everything else
That's a really good point!
Good info man, just subscribed
Right on!
If you're really out there, you could even do some light stuff in a Fit. . .
I’m not sure what that means.
Nice video mate !
Hey brother! Great video! Don't be afraid to ask for money! You add great value man!
I appreciate it, dude! I promised myself and everyone else that unless I do this full time I’ll never ask for money and I still work so until then it’s on me!
Great info brother!!!! Safe travels! Thank you!!!!!🙏🏻
Anytime! Thank you!
Great Information.
Hey! Great video, and thanks! I've been off roading grand cherokees for about 15 years. I do a lot of overnight trips, but I just signed up to go across the country and Overland for 6 days with a small group. I'm really excited and confident, but I'm racking my brain trying to figure out what I can do to prepare better. You definitely seem like a great resource for information on this! One question for you...
What kind of air compressor would you recommend? I'm not trying to spend a fortune, but definitely think it's something I should add.
I subbed with my photography channel, and my personal! Keep up the great content, man!
Right on! Sounds like a blast. Thank you for the subs and hopefully, the videos will be helpful for your longer trips. Honestly, I used this compressor amzn.to/3tKKU4I on every trip I've been on. It's nothing fancy, but it's only $60 on Amazon and it worked well enough for us on several cross-country trips. It takes more time than a more expensive option like ARB, but it's a fraction of the cost so it's something to consider.
@@roamingwithjosh that looks good to me! Simple and small!
First viewer here. Earned my subscription. Good video and I like that wolf head logo
We appreciate it!
I agree with all the recommendations. I carry boards, shovel, axe, tow strap and other various recovery items, first aid kit with me at all times.
Something else that I carry with me at all times fully charged is a jump starter/booster pack.
I've drained my battery a few times while alone in the woods. I was happy to have this with me
Brother you and I think alike I carry everything you've talked about, I always have survival gear a sleeping bag, two poncho liners you can find them at any surplus store their warm even if wet. I've been doing a lot of wheeling but I want to start overlanding in the San Rafael swell.
Right on! Thanks for the comment!
Great video. I immediately subscribed. good advice to upgrade a first aid kit from oweys to minor trauma.
We appreciate it and welcome to the channel!
I use the conventional gazelle pop up tent. it was 250 dollars easy to put up and I use a coleman pop up bed frame with queen air mattress. All of which takes me under 10 mins to set up and about 20 mins to take down. However once set up if we want to drive around just a little bit not far or if we are more stationary camping for the week we don't have to put away our tent and then have to reset it up.
That is definitely the draw back of rooftop tents. Thanks for the info!
Great video
Great advice! And thank you for saying the rtt industry is borderline extortion. I always thought that.
I’m glad someone is on the same page as me. It’s only gotten worse too.
Fantastic informative video.. I wish if you had talked a bit more about tool kits in this video..
I’m working on a more in depth tool video currently.
Just getting into overlanding. I’m foregoing a winch for a come along given price points and several reviews of a winch being used most often to help others vice self recovery. I figure I can get the winch down the road if needed.
My winch has been used a single time so far out in Moab on the lockhart basin trail. I think you will be fine with a come along and a tow strap if you're in a forest or around trees. A pair of traction boards wouldn't be a terrible idea either if you don't already have them.
Get a atv wench and anchor it to rig tree rock a good high lift can use for a come along.
@@daywithmike4892 That's a great idea!
You're gonna hate your life with a come along lol get a winch
I thought this too, until I had to use my come a long the first time really stuck. Just get a wench.
Great video👏🏼
New sub.
I'm rewatching some of your videos. Someone seriously needs to give you your own TV show !
lololol I don't know if that would be a good idea!
My current rig is a 2006 stock v8 Volvo XC90
Right on!
Thanks for the advice. Are you guys still using the wolf packs? Also, what kind of lights are you running on the A pillar?
No worries! We are still using the wolf packs as well as the steralite totes. I still haven't found the perfect system yet with the boxes, but what I have so far works. We run the Rigid Industries 2 inch square lights. 1 is a flood and one is a spot so it lights up the trail pretty good. I've honestly only had to use them a handful of times.
Between wrangler and gladiator which you like most?
Funny you should ask. Full video coming on Monday about that exact topic with a bunch of info on both rigs.
Many of the things in your recovery kit you said, you never used. Begs the question, if you really need them or if, in a pinch, you may be able to call for help? Peace of mind is important, and I guess it depends on how remote on this planet to go. Re first aid kit: a basic first aid course is also a good idea ;-)
You’re totally right. I carry a lot of stuff that I’ve never used and when I pack for a trip I always wonder if I really “need” all the items I’m taking. I guess it’s more peace of mind. I used more of my stuff for other people’s issues more than my own, but traveling with a family, I want to be able to get us where we want to go without the need to call for help. I’ll admit it, I’m an over-packer!
By that logic…Most cops don’t use their guns. Do they really need them 🤔
why not a kinetic rope? tow strap has metal ends that could hurt others
I have nothing against kinetic rope, I just happen to carry a tow strap.
Nicely done. Beautiful landscape and expertly shot video. :-) Let me know if my company can help to make your travels better. ;-) Cheers, Chris.
Did you guys get a new rig??? Something looks different
Nope! Same Rig, but I did ask Santa for a gladiator so we will see how that shakes out.
Add tools, duck tape, peanut butter...
Mentioned a compressor to use with your waterport, however did not outline how important the compressor is to your trip?!
I completely forgot about the compressor. The compressor is extremely important.
ARB on board mounted air compressor on Jeep JK.
First comment! Yeahhhh!
✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
If you don't have ratchet straps in your vehicle out of pure necessity, you need to get out more...
You most definitely don't need lockers or sway bar disconnects to "go overlanding" heck you don't even need 4 wheel drive. I don't know this guy from anyone but if your really looking for overland advice I would look elsewhere. If he considers that tow strap a "massive" and "strong" tow strap hes never been off-road in his life that strap wouldn't recover a stuck SXS let alone a JEEP or fullsize rig, You most definitely don't NEED a winch. Tire plugs are not tire "patches" as you call them. Traction boards they are so essential that you've never actually used them. The list goes on, basically this whole video is you talking about a ton of poser gear people strap on their car and call themselves overlanders because you camped a Saturday night one time... Overlanding is getting out there and going on adventures a vehicle is what covers the miles not what makes the trip get out there and enjoy it don't listen to people like this telling you you need all this crap just to go overlanding. I would find a more reputable "overlander" to seek advice.
Thanks for the comment! ❤️
10min video extended to 20min
Please stop playing that cringe song in the beginning of the video.
You didn't absolutely love that song?? Weird.
Hey buddy overland and 4x4 are different. If u are not camping it's just driving . And that JIP in the back . Don't act like it did not come stock with your "driving " gear..... nice try princess..
Terrible advice.
Great Comment. thank you for the clarification.
Glad to help
@@roamingwithjosh been doing this stuff for over 35 years. You guys should change what you call it to "Overloading". Here is some advice....talk about things you know about!
@@roamingwithjosh also....the last thing we need is another spot burning UA-cam channel.
@@mojavered. People like you are the exact reason I will keep making videos and continue to take up space on UA-cam. Your infinite wisdom is what I'm trying to achieve and the continuation of my channel will be to ensure that one day I'm able to say the famous "I've been doing this for 35 years" comment on someone's UA-cam channel. Thank you.
my toxic trait is wanting to spend all my money on capability
That's not a bad thing at all!
