When you decide to take your Land Rover Discovery off road it is essential that you carry the right equipment. Whenever I go of on my Off Road 4x4 adventures I always carry the following essential eqipment.
Spare wheel. In good condition (As my Land Rover Discovery tyres are 18inch I had to carry an extra spare tyre as it is difficult to get 18 inch tyres in Morocco. (Unless you want to pay an extortionate price captured audience and all that).
Tow rope. Always use a long good quality nylon towing rope between 5-10 metres long. You don't want the 2nd vehicle in the same soft ground as you. Have proper rope ends spliced and use shackles to connect to either vehicles. You can buy readymade towing ropes or have them made. You can also buy a Kinetic rope for recovering you're stuck off road 4x4. (You must know how to use this rope safely).
If you decide to go down the route of steel tow rope and you are using it to pull out a vehicle that is stuck in sand or mud, make sure you place a heavy coat or cover on the cable to reduce the cable from flying through tha air and causing serious injury or damage.
Use D shackles or a Bow shackle with these ropes is the safest way of connecting the rope.
Shovel. The most popular seems to be the Army folding type shovel which is easy to stow away in your Land Rover. The best are the long handled type especially in sand as you can dig away the sand from underneath your 4x4 a lot easier.
Air compressor, Is essential you need a good air compressor that can inflate your Land Rover tyres. Some of the air compressor you get from your local car accessory shop is not up to the job. I have seen some people struggling with air compressor in Morocco when we have to re-inflate our tyres before we can go back onto the tracks.
Tent. The tent I used on my first trip to Morocco was very difficult to erect especially in windy conditions. The length of time it takes is just not practical when you are putting it up and down every day. It required two persons to erect this tent. But you learn from your mistakes and I had changed my tent for my next adventure to Oz RV3 tent which I can recommend as doing as advertised. It can be erected in 30seconds.
When you decide to take your land Rover Discovery off road it is essential that you carry the right equipment for any off road adventures. So whenever I go on any 4x4 adventures the essential kit I always carry includes some of the following elements.
