Recovery gear, spare fuses, spare headlight bulbs, block of wood, sleeping bag, 1 gallon of water, TrailMix, 1qt each 10w40 & PS/ATF, jumper cables, duct tape, road flare, small ratchet straps, Flashlight, tire repair kit+can of FixAFlat, bottle jack, matches, vise grips, flat+phillips screwdrivers, knife, and sockets+cheater bar for tire and spare tire lug nuts.



Would prefer to upgrade to a jump box and ditch the jumper cables. Need to add back a 16mm wrench (for adjustable pulley) and spare serpentine belt.
