86FUBAR Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Well iv been getting ready for a camping / wheeling trip to kyburz CA. and have been stocking up on spare parts to carry with me on the trail incase I or someone else break something . Since I'm the type of guy that would "rather have it and not need it than to need it and not have it" i typicaly carry to much but since I'm spending alot in gas and lodging to tow the manch up there and i don't want to break in the first 2 hours and have to spend even more time and money trying to find parts out in the boonies etc ..... So what i have so far that i can think of at the top off my head long side , short side superior cromo shafts (still runing stock 297's) 2 dana spicer front u-joints 1 mile marker front stub shaft 1 warn locking hub , 2 mile markers 1 rear u-joint 1 front drive shaft a couple u-joint strap kits 1 stock uni-bearing (not for me) 1 stock rotor " " 1 stock stub " " assorted hoses: coolant , vacum etc... assorted nuts and bolts the necessary belts electrical stuff :wire , fuses, conections ,relays etc... spare tire some u bolts hopefully a leaf pack i will update as i think of stuff , but tell me what yall carry for spare parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beepbeepmyredjeep Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I don't take my little 2WD on trails, so my spare parts are limited to the following: Parts: Electrical Tape Hose Tape Lugnuts Tools: Knife Adjustable Wrench Hammer Fluids: Oil Pre-mixed Coolant Windshield Washer Fluid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deziped Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 GPS, cell fone & tow strap in case breakdown goes beyond flat tire & screw driver & tape capabilites. Oh, & lots of chow & sleeping bag in case wait for assistance turns into an over-nighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJ is dead Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Always carry a full change of clothes, a towel, jacket, stocking cap, and gloves. You may laugh at the idea, but wait till you're weiner deep in mud, you'll want an extra pair of levis MRE's are another good thing. I do believe there's a similar post on the board :typing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 holy crap, what don't I bring. oh wait, that's right, a water pump. :shake: The one thing that truly let me down. At least it was on the way home from the 3 week trip. I generally bring everything I can think of. U-joints, pair of axle shafts for the front, one for the rear, spare hub, tie-rod, various light bulbs, fuses and engine sensors, lug nuts, wire/hose, nuts/bolts/screws, engine belt, 3 gal of drinkable water, full oil change, alternator, and I'm sure I'm missing stuff. Yeah, I'm that guy. :D If it fits, it goes with me. But since I have Ford axles and a lot of custom parts, I also bring spares for Jeeps too. tie rod, front axle shafts, unit bearing, Dana 35 C-clip rear axle shafts, HO sensors, etc. Just stuff I had left over. But I don't necessarily carry all that heavy stuff with me on the trail. I'll leave it behind at camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
