Emergency vehicle provisions

[Csm Davis]

So i have a thread going about bags for humans and i also use tool bags in my trucks so i thought we might share what we carry in our vehicles.
The military calls the main stuff for a vehicle BII (basic issue items) so i try to have at least the BII for each truck, this is the list I like.
Jack
Manual lug wrench
Electric or air impact gun
Jumper cables
Reflective triangles
Complete socket set
Complete combination wrench set
Adjustable wrenchs 6",10", and or 12"
Vise-grip pliers regular and needle nosed
Welding rods in holder case
Electrical repair kit
Electrical tape
Duck tape the gorilla glue type
Coat hanger
Hammer ball peen and shop maul
Fuse kit
Moving blanket
Ratchet straps
Grime boss hand cleaner wipes
Tow strap, i want snatch staps
Rtv right stuff
Led drop light
Flash light

Pioneer tools as the military calls them
Shovel
Axe
Maddox or grubbing hoe as they are known by around here
I really want a smaxe
And I liked the folding rake from the chilling out ride.
All of my trucks have 2 batteries minimum because they are diesel or 24v
All have full size spare tire and or run flats good for 50 miles
All have 5 gallon cans of fuel and water
All have 4 shackles

I am going to be adding to the above list as i steal ideas from you guys.

@ Csm Davis,

@ Res,
Tire plug kit and a hammock are genius.

Strap
Jumper cables
2 Flashlights
Moving blankets (pillow and cover)
2 qts of motor oil
Fuse kit of small and large
Power inverter
Paracord
Larger rope
Bungee cords

Then in the bed rolling around.

It's on the list to do.

I've got the 5/16". I put a hook on one end. But it'll fit and snake through tight spots where most recovery gear won't.

YouTube it and see.

I plan on it. Everything is in a large tote except the hi lift and stick.

[Reserector [Veteran Member]]

My point would be that chain is potentially dangerous for recovery use. I've witnessed some near misses, sheared bolts, snapped hooks, and bent crossmembers.

And shattered wind shields, back glass, and tailgates
