[QUOTE="Yukon Joe, post: 873117, member: 2921"] That is an excellent start. I'm looking forward to hearing about your trip. Since you have two trucks going, you'll be able to split up the gear and spare parts. Preparing the truck: Be sure all of your fluids are topped off and changed if need to be. You may want to add an extra power steering cooler and reservoir. I'd bring spare fluids as well. Radiator coolant Transmission oil Gear oil As for spare parts: I would take a total of two or three IWE. May want to consider a power steering pump. (If you think you could change one in the trail. It's not a necessity, but steering in sand would be difficult.) A whole tie rod assembly (string or tape measure for setting your alignment after the change out). I'm not sure on the wheel speed sensors. Maybe [MENTION=1778]treypal[/MENTION] can speak to them. Recovery gear: I would go with a 1" snatch rope, 30' long. If you bring a chain, bring a way to attach it to the truck. Hooks or clevis. For sand recovery, you may need an anchor point. I'd consider adding something like the Pull Pal. And I'd consider adding a winch. They can be mounted into the truck very easily. Other items to discuss; where are you staying, camping? Hotel? How will the gear be secured in the truck? Are you packing food? Coolers? Or ARB fridge? Sounds like a really neat trip you're planning. Yukon Joe :baby: :baby: [/QUOTE]
