Never ever ever ever use your ball hitch to pull anyone out Mr. That is dangerous and deadly. You said it in your video HAVING THE RIGHT TOOLS TO DO THE JOB RIGHT. Get yourself a shackle hitch receiver if you plan on towing or pulling anyone out of sand, mud, snow whatever it is. Always practice safety otherwise you could get sued if you hurt or kill someone using your ball hitch as a recovery tool. Those ball hitch aren’t meant for pulling anyone out. Remember that.
Ratchet straps, flashlight (a magnetic base work light would be good as well), a small tool kit to do minor repairs, and a small tire inflator. That's all that comes to mind at this time.
I started thinking about that and have since bought ratchet straps, a headlamp and I am working on getting a tire inflator. I do agree all of those are great additions
@@WilliamTythas I can see that. I have one of the bigger craftsman tool kits that I could throw in there but I will probably buy a smaller one due to how much space my current one takes up
Good video, i live in North Dakota to,go pick up a cluster hook,you will use it alot,especially when pulling out cars stuck in the snow.maybe a good jumper pack and a buddy heater,
I stand by alot of stuff from harbor freight, but for the tape Gorilla tape is amazing compared to HF tape, and Super 33+ is the only electrical tape I would trust for actual electrical work, for a single day patch to get home the HF is good enough. I know it is weird to talk about the tape specifically, but I have been in situations where it mattered.
You may want to search some videos before hooking up to a tow ball to pull someone out. Tow balls do not handle the shock load very well. It can work for a static pull if there is no other option.
A clevis could be used to connect the recovery strap to your vehicle or used as a change of direction friction pulley for ropes, straps, etc. They come in all sizes
That makes sense. I do have two tow hooks on the front of my truck but getting those may allow an easier attachment point. I will look at those next time I’m at HF

like your list .. I would add screwdrivers, pliers, cutting tool, - I know you said tool kit but people might think sockets and wrenches

How about a solar panel to change that camper top battery?
I have thought about that. At some point I want to get one but they get a little pricey sometimes

Good video brother

Yeah I also have tow hooks on the front of my truck could work for recovery also
I would get the shackle/hitch they have so you don’t have to use the ball or put the loop inside the receiver and pin through the tow strap
@@allendorrell9845 I will more than likely do that
I keep a smaller axe in all my vehicles
Clevis(s), rope, paracord, just to name a few.
I have since added paracord to it. The clevis though, I am not 100% sure what that is

Gorilla tape is WAY better than the hf duct tape.
Tire plug kit is weak it will bend easily.
