This weekend is the 4th annual Women’s Wheeling event at Rausch Creek Off Road Park in Pennsylvania. I can’t wait for this awesome event.
I have been wheeling at Rausch Creek many, many times, and before every wheeling trip I make sure I am well prepared. That means pulling out my checklist and gathering all my needed gear. Top Essentials for the Off-Roading Trails -- September 2015
This includes my recovery gear, tool box, first aid kit, extra
I do have a spare tire. Come to think of it… now that I am lifted will my jack that came with the jeep work?
As for the fluids...what do I truly need? Here are some fluids suggested.
- Engine Oil
- Brake Fluid
- Power Steering Fluid
- Automatic transmission fluid
- Coolant
- Bearing Grease
- WD-40 - I have this :)
- Starter Fluid
- Extra Gas… well I fill up at the gas station right near the off-road park and never gone thru more than a quarter tank of gas.
I really need to consider the possible breakdowns I might have. And of those breakdowns what would I be able to fix on my own. Then try to bring what I think I'll need. So with that in mind, the extra fluids I will start off with is gear oil, gasket maker, and coolant. I will work up from there as I get more knowledgeable. As far as spare parts.... Ugh... that is a toughy for me. So far my spare tire is it. Unless you count zip ties and duct tape.
With the right tools and know how I am pretty sure just about anything can be fixed on the trails. I just need to work my way up to that.
