Re: What is in your Winter Arsenal of Recovery Gear?
Oh man, I have too much! I have a 4'x2'x2' Diamond Plate box that is full of straps, shackles, booster cables, jacks, tools, and most importantly spare parts (including 3 half shafts, idler+pitman arms, ball joints, etc. Lots of stuff. I probably carry 300lbs in tools, parts and supplies. The box drives me nuts sometimes as it rattles right now, but I will fix that by lining the box.
