Thinking about some sort of base plate to attach to my hi-lift jack that would keep it from sinking in soft ground in jack mode, but allow me to use it like an anchor point for winching with the hi-lift.
No spare isn't really an option out in the boonies, bring it inside for aero improvement unless space is a problem. Around town could rock the AAA/fixaflat. Another perk of not doing the big tire lift thing if it works, no ginormous spare tire.
I am a bit of a backpacking gear modder, and probably have a lighter setup than 99.9% of backpackers out there, so that is an easy/light/small/tested emergency gear setup for the humans.
Any tricks on getting the weight of car related tool kit down to minimum, without compromising? I can think of some basics, like only take sockets/wrenches for sizes of bolts on your rig. If its not too tight, good quality crecent wrench instead of combo wrench sets. Spare fuses are light. maybe towstrap instead of chain. cheers
