Per :NAXJA: Bylaws:


Section 3: Required Equipment for Event Participation
  1. :NAXJA: VERY HIGHLY recommends that all event participants have a CB Radio.
  2. :NAXJA: requires all listed items to be present, and available for use, for a vehicle to be permitted to participate in a event. Participants are expected to stow equipment and all other items within their vehicle in a safe manner, conscious of the effects of OHV use and possible shifting of items.
  3. :NAXJA: Safety Inspectors will use this list for safety inspections prior to any event. The Safety Inspector has final say in approval or rejection of any vehicle for event participation and may at anytime defer to a second event or club officer for additional ruling.
  4. :NAXJA: expects each event participant to carry insurance and registration sufficient to meet the legal requirements of their vehicle state of residence and for the roads and trails traveled for the event. :NAXJA: is not responsible for assuring an entrant's vehicle is legal for the roads and trails traveled in the event.
Equipment List
  1. Visibly charged fire extinguisher (BC or ABC)
  2. First aid kit
  3. Adequate spare tire, jack and lug wrench
  4. Safety belts for driver and any current passenger
  5. Adequate attachment points in the front and rear of the vehicle:
    1. Acceptable forms of attachment points: (All Items must be mounted in a manner to provide adequate strength and integrity)
    2. Tow hooks of OEM or greater integrity
    3. D-Rings
    4. Shackle/Clevis
  6. 20ft 10,000lb snatch strap without any metal hooks
  7. Secured battery (no bungee cords)
A CB is not listed but HIGHLY recommended.

Please be sure your vehicle complies with the above requirements. It will make for a more enjoyable experience for everyone. Tech inspections will take place to ensure that vehicles are properly prepared.
 
i also read somewhere that planning smart is a suggested plan as well. As a friend and i run a lot of the same parts and tire size, we will be sharing spare parts/tire. to conserve weight and space for the each of us. Is this gonna be an issue?
 
Sharing spares is not a problem as long as you run the same trails. The biggest problem is holding up the whole gang while you try to fix a flat instead of quickly changing it.
 
i understand that, we are runnin the same trails and will be up there the same days (awww, isnt that cute) lol

we always split up the load like this and wanted to make sure it wouldnt be an issue up there that we did this
