What's in the back of your Jeep?

[cumorglas]

i must be special i actually have GLOVES in the GLOVE box. hehehe

So do I, it's madness. Someone lock me up

You laugh, but when a day goes south in a big way the thought of clean dry socks in the highest driest part of your heap can make things right again in a way nothing else can.

Unless I go out wheeling I keep little to nothing in the back of my jeep. Most of the time I don't even have a spare tire and jack back there. Right now I have a pair of gloves a jacket and a hammer with zip ties that's it. I don't live far from work so if I do get a flat I can call a few friends or the GF to bring me the tire and jack. It only takes 20 min to get home so if I get a flat like I said no big deal.

Now if I'm out wheeling thats a whole different game right there and I pack alot of tools spare parts recovery items and the works.

Lug Wrench, Big Bottle Jack, Donut(215/70R15 on a crazy offset rim), and carpet.

I am. I hate needing something and not having it. I think the Army does that to you. Any time I go to the field I pack tons of stuff in my ruck even knowing I won't need it.

Well, like I said... I don't wheel... and I have another (newer, high MPG) car that does all the long road trips. So the Jeep's always on-road, and almost never outside of the AAA-plus 100-mile radius from the tools!

Between under the seat, behind the spare, and in the odd shaped compartment on the right (I built an elastic net so it is now usefull) I have of course the bottle jack and tire iron, cross style lug wrench, cigaret lighter aircompressor, few rags, bungie cords, 2 wratcheting tie downs, tow strap, ball adapter with 2in and 1 7/8in balls, fluids, small tool kit (probably more extensive than it should be), set of work clothes, pair of sandals, 13 LED flash light, can of fix-a-flat, jumper cables, blanket, and a jacket. I will probably never have a chance to use half this stuff. But Be Prepared from Boy Scouts kind of stuck with me.

Up front:

Understand this has been going a while...but here goes:

High lift jack, lots of tools (but not complete socket set, but universal tools like screw drivers, crescent wrenches, pliers, etc.), tire plug kit, tape (duct tape and electrical tape), spare tire (within 2" of tires on vehicle), air hose (to attach to on-board compressor), pry bar, universal 4-way lug wrench, jumper cables, quart of oil, quart of tranny fluid, gallon of anti-freeze, rope, blanket(s), tow hooks (to fit my front and rear receiver hitches), tow strap (3" x 30'), towels/rags, bungies, folding shovel, axe, about 20' of 3/16" cable and cable clamps, hose clamps, spot ties...did I miss something?

Sheesh....probably 200 lbs of stuff!

[Crusher16]

Subwoofer and a bag of tools.

 

[IslanderXJ]

My quad, a cheap version of a hi-lift, extra fluids, and a set of mechanics tools so I can put the stuff that falls off back on later.

 

[Googenheimer]

A hockey bag with all my smelly stuff in it. My wife doesn't like me to keep it at the foot of the bed....women!

 

[mizzutgr]

All the time....

A 5 wt. TFO fly rod, matching Ross reel, waders, boots, gravel gaurds, a case of Red Bull, a box of Clif Bars, backpack, extra clothes, several boxes of flies, sunscreen, several hats, camera, and Skoal.

There's also some basic vehicle tools back there but they get in the way of the important tools.
