How to Build an Off-Road Tool bag - Tools for Overlanding & Roadside Repairs
IN this video I walk you through my off-road tool roll as well as the progression most overlanders take when building out their tool kits. I also share with you a pretty amazing toolkit from Decked and BoxoUSA.

Super Thankful to everyone that watches and supports this channel. It has really been fun to get back to making videos... even cooler to be able to do it on a regular basis. 🙏
Thanks for providing such great, free content! 👏
Loving your recent videos. Much more applicable/useful to what I personally actually do than a lot of the "take a fully decked out gladiator to an overlook and film it with 10 drones" style videos.
Appreciate the feedback... always helpful to understand how video resonate... Frankly I am still new to editing and filming so this kind of stuff is very helpful.
Pretty solid kit! I’ve been a mechanic for almost 17 years and I carry similar stuff to what you have. I’ve seen lots of guys carry way too many tools and even tons of spare parts. Whether I’m wheeling or dual sport riding I’d just carry a basic tool kit but I’d always have enough to hike out on foot or at least wait several days for help. Not to mention I’d carry a SPOT too. I think my approach is generally ok if you’re in the lower 48 but I’m sure it’s not ideal in other regions. Keep calling out over loaded vehicles, I love it. I drove several modified XJs and had a minimalist approach. Nothing like a grossly overloaded vehicle only having to upgrade your driveline/suspension because it keeps breaking from being over loaded and then suffering horrible fuel economy and adding even more weight to gain back fuel range. Maybe some people should try backpacking and then realize how much stuff they don’t in their rig lol.
Awesome stuff I was literally just working all this out for myself. Didn’t know decked had such a complete kit available. Definitely need one of those. Thanks for the video. Would love to see more exploring needs for recovery and extra parts
Yep, spot on. I carry an Atlas 46 tool roll that is brilliant. And it has taken decades to pare down to the things I really need. I also keep a couple of small separate bags; one for electrical, another for tires, etc., much like your cool big roll. That way I only take out what I need and not the whole enchilada. The only tool that I always take that is not really needed...until you do, is a BFH (Big F'n Hammer), aka, a 2lb lump hammer. Every now and again you just need to bash something into submission and it is the right tool for the job. Well done! Ps. I keep a small driver set in the center console for small things. Again, just to keep you from having to unpack everything to get the big heavy tool roll that is, of course, at the bottom of everything!
Great video and great topic. I like to carry a small and cheap Harbor Freight packing blanket too. Of couse it is nice ice to lie on when working under the truck, and helps keep small parts from getting lost too.
I need to do this… I have had to lay in some nasty stuff
I fell in a creek in February and my moving blanket was MY blanket on the ride back to town. Fortunately I was not alone and my friends bought me dry clothes when we got to a store (and they didn't make me look like a dork! Haha)
A diesel tech taught me to use the foam ground pads. They're similar to high school gym mats but smaller. Make a great underpaid for sleeping and are small enough to put into a truckbed drawer.
Edit: mine are jeepers creepers branded. (Hilarious, but unrelated to the horror films of the same name)
Perfect video and exactly what i needed after cleaning out my own Tacoma and trying to slim down on what I carry. Thanks for the work you put in on these
Thanks for watching 🙏
WOW the DECKED bag has a hammer!!
Great video thanks. I’m starting to pare down the individual tools to tools that are multi use. For instance I have some Klein impact sockets with two sizes in each and some capri ratcheting wrenches that are two sizes. Also the single screwdriver with various bits, just like you showed. A bit of size and weight savings but an excuse to buy more tools if I’m honest
Good info!
🙏
I love tools.
I have a tool Problem
A breaker bar with the socket that fits your lugs nuts is a must. You already hit on the axle nut. But, without a breaker bar, good luck with the axle nut. I have had bad luck with bags falling apart with all the heavy tools. I have all my stuff in something hard. I have been working on getting it all in a location that keeps it safe during rollovers (not that I have ever done that, but who knows).
Great video. I have made a few videos on vehicle tool kits, but none are as good as this one.
Yeah.. one thing I forgot to mention is in my recovery kit I carry a Hi-Lift jack... the pipe handle on is a really solid breaker bar extension. But yeay... both kits have a breaker bar... my personal kit has the OEM Tools extendable one I show in the video and the Decked Boxo kit has a standard breaker bar that would pair really nice with a hi-lift jack handle for extension.
@@OutdoorAuto I must have missed the extendable one. I have one of those in one of my vehicles. It is awesome.
I ordered the tool kit, perfect for the Toyota fleet, I’ll just move it from truck to truck when I go on a trip. Nice to have a complete separate kit from the one in my garage.
Having a separate kit from the one in the garage is very helpful... when I didn't, too often I would leave home with no tools.
Absolutely! In fact, I usually have the problem the other way around; all my tools are in the truck and not in the shop! ;-)
Nice.
Please please let us know when the tool decked tool box is available again. Thank you sir!
I had a 96 Tacoma, I swear you could take it apart with a 10,12, and 14 mm. Anytime I worked on it I just got those out
I mean as long as you aren't getting to deep that is pretty true
Let’s go!
The most important piece of information about building a kit is use it, build a kit then when you do any routine maintenance on the car use your kit. if you end up NEEDING another tool to complete the job then add it to the kit.
So true… my kit is years in the making and still evolving always
Seems that Decked and BOXO aren’t selling that tool roll & tool set any longer. The link in the video description led to a “not found” page and searching the Decked site directly didn’t surface the kit. I was able to find a near equivalent through BOXO directly & also on Amazon, under their own brand at ~595 dollars. Main difference in the photos is they don’t have all that sweat labeling on the tool slots. Thanks for the great video!
That is good to know… I know decked sold out… wonder if they are just working on getting more stock and a bit distracted with the launch of their new drawers.
Just found your channel and liking the content. Fun fact, you can get the exact same Snap On pipe wrench from Bahco. Snap On owns Bahco. They manufacture the pipe wrench, just don’t get the fancy colors.
Thats good to know.
For battery jumpers... ive just set a monthly reminder on my phone calendar to charge anything in my truck
The bag is sold out with no reference to an available date! Great video though, I have a garage full of tools and I'm starting to put my kit together. The tendency to take everything is strong but you are very helpful.
Dang... that is the 2nd product I have made a video about that sold out in under a week...
If you have not already. Could you make a video of parts that may break when off roading and the tools needed to fix each?
ooh that would be a good video... let me think how to pull that together.
that little flashlight looks cool, is it great? i need a edc flashlight recently, any recommendation?
Still testing it... we will see.
I got a Cloud Defensive Chicro Admin Light a few months ago and have been really happy with it. It's really simple and relatively small while also being rechargeable and having two different brightness settings. I also have a ThruNite Ti2 that I love and keep on my wife's keys and a Pelican 1910 that I've had in my toolkit since I was in the military. They are both rock solid choices as well.
AAA flashlights are perfect for EDC use and way brighter than most folks need normally. Hope this helps
I would say I’m between Stage two and Stage three. I still need to filter out the bullshit tools I don’t use and add better tools. Definitely have to add the axle socket
At least you aren't full blown stage 3... it got bad for me... way too much weight
Yes, everyone's overland rig these days are stupid heavy. Making your rig 600 lbs heavier, BEFORE you even get inside of it or put any gear or people init, its STUPID. Not to mention how a lot of people are making their rigs super TALL. Too many people got caught in the hype of buying stuff because it looks cool on IG
what’s on your rig?

Good video but I don't understand something. I carry a 43mm socket in my dodge 3500 pickup for the axle nuts on that vehicle. I carry a 2 1/16inch in the Jeep. I carry specific items like this and lug nut keys socket so I don't have to look for them or guess what size I need. This is for "point of use" when I'm working in my garage. But I'm curious, if you're off-roading/overlanding I can't imagine carrying spare axle shafts or the gear oil you'd need after repairs are done. Or extra seals that you couldn't change in the field anyway. So if keeping weight down is a concern why take tools specifically for that purpose, or am I missing something?
Something I think people should take off-roading is a Dewalt 1/2 inch impact cordless wrench. For axle repairs don't forget a 1/2 in female x 3/4 in male adapter thats needed for these large socket sizes. The impact wrench delivers 1400 ft-lbs breakaway torque. The last time I removed my axle nut from my truck I couldn't get it loose with a 10ft cheat bar on a 3/4 in breaker bar and a blow hammer after using heat and blaster oil on the nut. My impact wrench removed it easily.
I actually carry full spare CV setups when I go certain places… I have a lot of spare parts and fluid’s depending on the trip… CV has come in handy already…
I don't think the Decked Boxo Tools & Bag is available in Canada. I tried looking for the price, but the page does not load
Ya I don't see it available anywhere in Canada
You should email Decked and tell them Canadians need tools too! 🇨🇦
Another good video. $500 for everything that comes in that bag is a great deal, IMO.
I'm glad you see the value. I buy a lot of tools. I am used to one quality tool many times being $150... so to get a kit like that, obviously it isn't SnapOn... but has a great warranty and the tools are really nice all for that price and that organized... I was impressed. I am running that kit with my other basic ad ons in my Troopy... super happy so far.
Stage one needs a tampon… daddy’s home 1 shows this to a tee
Crescent Wrench aka a Kansas City Speed Wrench 😅
😂
My Pop used to call it "the Irish socket set' ;-)
😅@@ailo4x4
Lost me at “500 and something dollars” lol
Tools are expensive 🤷♂️… I’m always seeing videos where people have $200 bags and a then like 5 tools from Walmart. I’ll pay money for good tools… then again, I use my tools a lot
@@OutdoorAuto I can understand the sponsorship but just understand the bias is strong from a viewer perspective
I built a similar setup. A lot of harbor freight Taiwanese made tools and some from Amazon. I would skip on a breaker bar these days, ratchets are stronger. I got a 1/2” extendable ratchet. Loosens lug nuts no problem. Also a 3/8 flex head. The icon bit ratchet kit is great too. Also the Icon pliers and Doyle pump pliers are worlds better than traditional pliers and channellocks without breaking the bank. Look up nano sockets too, they save a ton of space -was able to get more tools, in a smaller package, and in my opinion, better quality.
Honestly did not focus on organization, I know I can lay out the entirety of the bag on the floor or back seat no problem. Just a 12” tool bag that is zipped up and strapped down so it doesn’t kill anyone in an accident. All said, I have over $500 into it.
The tire repair kit is whole other setup, got a Glue Tread kit, plug kit, co2, and air compressor.
Just adding to it and modify as funds allow.
Those ratchets are great, until they're not. Carry a breaker bar anyway.
Where is your hammer? Important for breaking stuff loose.
Nice video with plenty info. Just don't like to be asked every 3 seconds to subscribe.
Noted. Good thing I only did it 3 or 4 times in 30 min video.
The real magic is to work out of your kit at home. Better to find your kit is lacking at home…
