When going camping and 4WD (four-wheel driving), it's important to be prepared for a range of situations and conditions.
Here's a list of 10 essential items to have for a safe and enjoyable camping and 4WD trip:
Remember that the specific items you need may vary depending on your location and the season.
Always check local regulations, weather forecasts, and road conditions before embarking on your 4WD adventure, and tailor your packing list accordingly.

Common sense again Tim.
In the late 90's I ran into and camped with Malcolm Douglas in the Kimberly. Amongst a whole lot of stuff I learnt from him I remember 2 which stood out.
A 6 pack of beer (in cans) under the drivers seat. Perfect currency for anything you wanted and 6 portable fire extinguishers.
A pack of playing cards. If you got lost start playing solitaire and you'll be guaranteed that someone will turn up, look over your shoulder and give you advice.
Keep the videos coming mate. Your content is real and practical.
He was an absolute icon of the Australian bush.
I would have loved to have camped a few nights MD back in his day.
Great tips mate.
Cheers Tim
Great advice Tim, but you forgot to mention the most important essential item of all, a pie and sauce! 😂 Love your work mate, keep it coming 👍
Hahah Lol
Pie and sauce should have been No1 Lol
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Cheers mate 👍
@@greghammond7956 no worries mate
I don't carry a long handle shovel, only a standard army entrenching tool. But a Great thang about a long handle shovel that I've never seen shown in 4wd course, is when you need to winch side ways. Place the shovel under the tyre to act as a skid.
Howdy Tim. Gave myself a fright a little while ago and nearly took myself and truck for a swim in a lake. Lots of thinking and searching followed and I found a device called "Resqme". Put it against a window, push and the glass breaks. Rescue hammers can't be used because there's no room on the drivers side to swing. One for the passenger side too. Mine came from the US to fit in the cig lighter. I'm an older guy so two other items I take are a battery operated rattle gun with sockets and a drag chain.
G’day Tim, one thing I keep in the car is a small crow bar to help lift the spare wheel on if I get a flat, I’m in my 60’s now and the wheel is too heavy, enjoy your travels mate 🍺🍺
G'day Alan,
A small crow bar is a great idea for changing a tyre.
Top stuff mate.
Im about to hit the big 60 next month. Lol
Thanks mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim
Another use for your shovel - might even lift the wheel easier than a crow bar😀
@@johnmullaney9604 Gday John, yep the shovel is a great idea, I carry the small crow bar because the shovel only goes on trips in the bush or beach not during the daily commute……cheers mate 🍺🍺
Hi Tim. Man after my own heart, at the end I was thinking "shovel, shovel, shovel!!" I personally have a silky instead of a chainsaw, and a half length shovel - but apart from that, couldn't agree more. Thanks for keeping the people safe with this sound advice.. :D
Top stuff mate.
Thanks a lot for your feedback, I’m glad you found the video handy.
Cheers Tim
Just a point about the IPhone 14 phone
Seemingly the alert goes to an Apple call centre then its past onto the appropriate authority in the region
That info comes from a Robert Pepper presentation
All the while another info episode for the bush loving people that follows your channel
Well done
Love ya work Tim
Awesome video batesy! Couldn't agree more with the chainsaw! Absolutely the main ingredient...
Thanks mate.
Chainsaw is a must alright.
Cheers Tim
The 10 items you've listed are items that I also take with me and are permanently in my 4WD. But four additional items I take that's not on your list are (excluding on this list are any cooking gear, lighting gear & additional tools in the tool kit):
1. Axe & hatchet
2. Machete & Silky Saw
3. Maxtrax
4. Winch ring
Gday mate
Very handy extra items you’ve listed mate.
Thanks for that.
Cheers Tim
Spare car key - yes essential for the reasons you stated, but I have experienced where my key Chip just stopped working, but the spare I carried worked fine. This happened when I was 470km's away from the nearest locksmith or Toyota dealer, and others had paid over $4000 for a recovery from that location.
Far out.
That’s not something you’d expect to fail on your spare key.
Specially when you’re out in the middle of nowhere.
Glad it worked out ok for you.
Cheers Tim
Talking about survival kits, I learnt from a friend to squeeze in a deck of cards, some $2 reading glasses and a book about Spitfires. A few guys can play cards, and if someone is sick of it they can read a book.
Don’t Forget to pack a Calendar!
You’ll Never Starve because you have a Years Supply of Dates.
Great info Tim 👍👌😎
The sapre key but reminded me why I always have a spare key in a lockbox strapped to the chassis so I always have access. Years ago I was on a beach with a mate and I was always careful to make sure my key was out of the car but the remote fob hadn't worked for about 6 months so left the keys in the ignition. Had my 2 dogs in the car and had the windows cracked and it rained a bit and must have got through the windows and somehow triggered the central locking. Couldn't bloody believe it. The windows were cracked just enough that a girl with thin arms was able to reach the door lock so didn't have to bust a window and was pretty lucky.
I'm surprised you've gone back to the old match for deflating tyres . . . Geez that sounds like hard work! I've got some icheck deflators and they're bloody good and accurate and reliable . . . So far . . . Before then I used the bottom half of a set of Chinese knock off staun deflators. They were really unreliable as a whole unit but take off the top and it's like you have a quicky deflator like the red one you have there but without any valve stem removal cos yeah I've always thought it's a bit risky constantly removing and fitting a valve. My half Chinese stauns worked so dam well I was hesitant to try anything else but I gotta say the icheck ones are mint . . . And if they stopped working I would just have to remove the top and they still deflate but just not automatically.
Another thing I've swapped to is a drifta shovel which is all collapsible so now it's just a small bag in the car rather than my full length one hanging off the roof rack. Bloody great improvement
Keep up the great work mate 👍
Hi Tim, youshowed well what is really needed, pne remark the socket for unscrewing the wheels should be a six point impact socket because it tends to break even when you unscrrew it by hand. It happens that the tire service tightens the wheel too strongly I experienced this last week.
All the gear you list their is pretty much what I carry when I head away even if I'm only say driving Launceston to Lake St Claire and return because you never know what situation you may come across/ get into. If you go out solo a lot fit a winch to your vehicle, and stick to a rule I've learnt the hard way. If your heading down a track that you don't if it goes through and it looks a little challenging for your vehicle, get out walk down the hill and walk back up and look at wether your vehicle will make it back up. It worked well with my previous vehicle being a 2000 model Subaru Forrester, I took that vehicle into places that I've thought "how the f*** did i get an AWD vehicle in here" when revisting places with my PK Ranger. I've had trees come down on one way in/out access tracks to campsites a few times, hence I never leave home without my stihl 180, but if I'm going more remote or for longer periods I'll also have my stihl 462 with a 25" bar. Only had to use it a couple of times but my little 180 with a 14" bar wouldn't have cut the mustard. I cannot stress enough to carry and use chaps and a helmet when running chainsaws out bush. It may seem over kill but if that chainsaw comes for you or a branch comes from nowhere you'll be thankful for the protection.
Great info, thank you! These essentials ensure you come back in one piece. But without your camp oven, billies and cooking stand, you won’t even want to go out camping!😂
Oh yes! Spare key, good advice! Thanks 👍
My list of 10 essential camping items: 1:carton of beer, 2:carton of beer, 3:carton of beer, 4:carton of beer, 5:carton of beer, 6:carton of beer, 7:carton of beer, 8:carton of beer, 9:carton of beer, 10:carton of beer!
I also take an axe, Maxtrax, tyre puncture repair kit, and spare batteries (for those battery operated items). Plus a grab bag (w/c has its own separate survival type gear in it).
Tyre plug kit is an essential. Ive used all my spares and a plug kit saved me a major problem
Gday mate,
Yeah for sure.
I don’t have a tyre plug kit.
But, it would certainly be handy having one, particularly in remote country.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Used to carry flint - now just have a couple of spare bic lighters - stick bit of Velcro on them and stick to any bit of carpet round your truck.😀
G'day John,
Thats a handy way you stick your lighter to the carpet mate.
Top idea.
Cheers Tim
Great stuff to have in your truck Thanks for sharing Tim
Gday Jack
Thanks mate.
I appreciate your feedback
Cheers Tim
awesome useful advice and must haves !!!!
Gday mate
That’s great you found this video helpful.
Thanks heaps for your feedback
Cheers Tim
Breaker Bar - not a bad idea to find out what your wheel nuts ought to be tensioned to. Stick a torque wrench on a wheel nut (at home) and get a feel for how tight they should be with your breaker bar. GU alloy wheel drivers will know what I mean 😀
G'day John,
When i do my own wheel rotations at home i use a torque wrench to tighten the wheel nuts back up.
Thanks for the tip mate.
Cheers Tim
Basic info that not everyone has but we all need. Well done Tim.
Thanks mate.
Some handy gear in the list.
Cheers Tim
Great list Tim.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
G’day Tim. An OBD2 engine decoder. Cars these days throw codes and go into limp mode. Handy item for diagnosis, clearing codes and ordering the right item that has stopped your car dead in its tracks.
Good list, thanks for sharing Tim!
I also learnt in a 4wd course that the shovel can be used to change a tyre, instead of lifting the tyre up can use the leverage of the long handle shovel to do the heavy lifting for you!
Gday Charlotte
No worries at all.
Glad you found the tips video helpful.
Your tip for the extra use for the long handle shovel is a top idea.
Thanks for your reply
Cheers Tim
Good one Tim lots of good advice
Gday Mark
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Love the lanyard tip for the spare key. You've reminded me that I need to double check where my wheel spanner is in my Patrol and whether it works on all the nuts on my spare wheel! Wheel cover key and spare key I have but now I need to remind myself where everything else I need is... An essential for desert or beach driving is something to put under a bottle jack to stop it sinking into the sand. I have a hi-lift jack base for that. A simple bread board also works. But as you can tell from what I say earlier, that'd be useless if I don't know where my tyre spanner is :) It's been years since I've had a tyre come off in the sand, so I really need to remind myself where all that stuff has got to. Also, you forgot some essential spare garlic hidden somewhere for when you run out :)
Gday mate,
Yeah the spare key is essential to have one just incase you loose the main key.
Same here mate, I’ve not had to change a flat tyre for years.
It’s really handy knowing where all that gear is to change a flat, you never know when you’ll get one.
Thanks for your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
Thanks for your videos Tim. I like your style. Focus on the basics and proven methods, keep it nice and simple. No screaming videos reviewing the next gadget; gold plated $9,500 recovery boards!
Keep them coming!
Awesome video Tim
Thanks a lot mate.
Glad you found some helpful information in the video.
Cheers Tim
Great advice, Tim. Always very practical, I love it.
Thanks very much.
I greatly appreciate your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Top video Tim .. Extra Water and Fuel good to :)
Great extra items in your selection mate.
Cheers Tim
As a first time owning a 4x4, I'm pleased to say that I have everything on your list except item 7. To add to the list i always carry a power bank for my phone, and now i have a power bank that can run the fridge for almost 24hrs. Gas cooker(small) for a quick coffee.
Extra socks and jocks. I was raised by my mother.
G'day Jordan,
Spare key could be very handy one day mate.
Thanks heaps for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Great video as always Tim, thanks! As for the long handle shovel, I saw someone using it as a walking support while crossing, on foot, a shallow river and navigating the uneven ground / rocks. At the same time, he used it to gauge the depth of the river before driving through.
Gday mate.
Ahh so there’s a few more handy uses for the long handle shaved.
Thanks for your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
Super Video Tim...thankyou
No worries Bec.
Thanks for your feedback
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures I appreciate your very practical and super-experienced approach Tim. Especially the Keep it Simple motto. Things get all too complex and techy sometimes and its refreshing to bring everything back to the comfort of essentials and common sense. Thanks heaps.
G’day Tim, thanks for sharing your essential items list, 100% nailed it I think. In my nice to have along items is a box or 2 of fuses, cheap as chips at the auto stores that will cover every amperage & size. Keep up the great videos Tim, that list will save lives for sure mate, well done! 👍
Gday David
No worries mate.
Thanks for that.
A few fuses would be handy.
Thanks for that mate.
Cheers Tim
After years of trips the "Tyre let her downer" of my choice are small Pop Tent type pegs.
Yeah mate, thats why i have gone back to using a stick. Simple but works very well.
Cheers Tim
The only one ive added to my list is a zoleo device. It allows text through satellite, can send tracking data and nitify if I have stopped for more than 30min. I use it solo 4x4, solo motorbike and high country fishing. Keeps my lovely wifes stress down. Also has Plb. But I still carry my plb.
If you travel on your own - as we do - and don't have a winch, a set of recovery tracks will make life a lot easier. We also like to take an air jack if we go beach driving. Good list, pretty much what we take except the chainsaw.
Gday mate.
Yeah recovery boards are handy for beach driving.
I have a set at home, but never take them for the high country.
Thanks mate for your feedback
Cheers Tim
Some great tips mate. I keep most things in my car at all times except a spare key and chainsaw. I don't have a winch so don't need all of that gear. Chainsaw I was a bit shocked with though given National Parks don't allow them, at least here in NSW you are not allowed to have one in the vehicle.
Good stuff!
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
I don't know if I've mentioned it before but we have an app on our phones called Emergency Plus which will tell you your exact location including GPS coordinates and I think that you can send them to the emergency services you have rung.
Only works when you have service, afaik, but could be very useful if you're in an unfamiliar area or a stressful situation and not thinking so clearly.
We're in the country so describing where you are can be a bit problematic if you're between roads or whatever.
Maybe a fire extinguisher as well?
I like the idea of those brackets that bolt onto the front of the front seats as they're out of the way and easy to get to if you have a couple of them.
Have to get me one of those tool kits one day.
Good video as always, thank you.
G'day mate,
Yes i have the Emergency Plus app, very handy info that has on it.
Thanks mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim
Forgot about 112. Thanks👍🏼
Are you serious??
Cheers Tim
G'day Tim,mate thanks for a great insight. Mate I have had the same chainsaw as you and just thought I would mention those huskys have an issue with the exhaust coming loose and overheating the engine causing damage and in my case terminal. Cheers mate 👍
G'day mate,
My Husky is over 30 years old, ive not had that problem you mention with them over heating.
I'll keep that in mind going forward.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Nice Ideas there Tim!
I also use a lanyard but in a different way: my lanyard lives in the deflator pouch and as soon as I deflate the tyres I clip it to the car key. It is super bright red so if I accidentally drop my key in sand, water, mud or tall grass I can easily find it.😉
Well that's my tip to add to the list👍
Cheers
Gday Max
Great idea mate where you keep your spare key.
That would be easy to find for sure.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures It's hidden in special spot but accessible without unlocking the car😉
The fob battery is with the key but not inside the key (it makes it harder to steal it!)
@@maxgermasi3302 that’s a top idea mate.
That's a great idea, I'm going to do something similar.
I carry two cordless chainsaws in case one gets stuck and a Silky Bigboy as well.
Another thing for that list is a Projecta jump starter, apparently it’s the one most car yards use and the latest one can be recharged by leaving it on the started car for 45 seconds. It’s also a power bank for devices which is super convenient.
The satellite feature on the phone sparked my ears up. Just updated to s23 ultra, think I’ll check and see if my android has that feature Tim..great info Tim ..an old mate once said …..1 is none, 2 is 1, but he takes 3 just in case. ..three methods to get out of strife…….🇦🇺👍
G'day Eric,
Could be worth checking mate to see if your phone has the sat feature.
I appreciate your feedback mate.
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventuresjust checked Tim, no the Samsung s23 series don’t have that feature, but I been researching..lol..the netgear mobile wifi devices I have not sure either…but I have found the IridiumGo Satellite mobile wifi device has access to satellite in Australia with many satellites available…..short of Elon Musks Tesla mobile pi phones and his Starlink satellite available soon in Australia. So the iridium Go Satellite mobile wifi available for apple phones and all smart phones in Australia seems the possible way to go…but Elon Musks Mobile Pi mobile and his Starlink satellite network is of interest
Unfortunately at this point it an Iphone 14 only feature.
@@LockyourHubs4WDing not sure what you mean mate.
cheers
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Thanks for the list. I have been trying to find some good old fashioned tyre vulcanizing patches (the ones you clamp on and use a match to light) to go with my kit. They are great for a temporary side wall repair and repairing hoses etc, Cant seem to find them in Australia any more. Anyone know where I can find them? A Li Ion jump starter is also really handy and can be used to charge devices and power 12v stuff. All the best!
Might sound silly but l keep a handful of pepperoni sticks and a roll of bog paper.
Obviously the bog paper is in the back. 😏
But the pepperoni stick hang out in the centre console and get rotated regularly silly things yes but they are always there.
Doesn’t mate mate if it sounds silly to others.
If those tops work for you, that’s all that matters.
Thanks for your reply
Cheers Tim
Nice video Tim as always.
Can I add something to the list.
An emergency bag. Just in case a if you want to runaway from the vehicle in case of fire or in weather event.
This bag should contain emergency food and water, very basic bush tools, vey basic shelter and cooking stuff
Thanks Tim
See you on tracks
Great extra tip mate on the emergency bag.
Could come in handy.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Tim,the 112 number is a bit of a Furphy it is just the same as dialling 000. Remember both numbers are useless when remote and you don't have any contact with a tower. A satellite device is always best in these situations.
Gday mate.
From all the St Johns first aid courses I’ve done over the years, that 112 number is what they’ve said to use if you have SOS in the top right hand side of your phone screen.
Now, as I mentioned. I’ve never used.
But thanks for your feedback
Cheers Tim
Thanks Tim good stuff as always. Not sure how tight your nuts are, but I would struggle undoing mine with the ratchet handle from your tool set. Surely an extension on a long handled bar would make life easier?
Take a short length of 4 x 2 coz you if stuff up completely, you can give ya self a good hit in the head 😂
Tim. You mention doing a first aid course. Nearly all employers will gladly pay for staff to do first aid training. It benefits both employer and employee
Yeah spot on mate.
I’ve done my first aid courses with StJohns.
Well worth doing.
Cheers Tim
Hi Tim great tips , what brand is your tool set looked pretty good
Gday mate
Mine is a Stanley.
Heaps of other brands with a tool selection like that.
Cheers Tim
Hi Tim can you please links for first aid kit rope shackles etc thanks for the vid
Lovely Ep and a great list or gear, I carry much the same and heaps more, I will say its highly Illegal to carry a chainsaw in to a NP in QLD
Gday Craig
Yeah when I did Fraser Island a few years ago, it was illegal to have a chainsaw in the 4WD.
Certainly not the case down here in the High Country.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
That “no chainsaw” policy in certain areas is ridiculous. Bush tracks need to be maintained but they’d rather you turn around instead of clearing the track, it’s just stupid.
Yes We have some Dheads running our NPs that is for sure. @@ian9toes
Hi Tim
Some good info 👍
Can I please ask what PLB you use ?
Cheers
I basically have everything on you list as well part from first aid kit cause my snake bite kit all full on first aid. So I have all my maps just incase I do get lost. do you a have a sat phone as well for family emergency to tell them where I'm located at all times
get a BlastMatch or Sparkie instead of a standard flint... These are a flint that can be used 1 handed..... good if u are injured.
PLB is #1. I dont leave the vehicle without it in my pocket.
Gday Geoff
Absolutely mate.
They are so worth having for personal safety.
I take mine everywhere
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Nice vid, what compressor are you using?
looks to be a bushranger max air III.
Very helpful - what toolbox set do you use or recommend?
Thanks mate.
Glad you found the video helpful.
My tool set is a Stanley.
There’s heaps of other brands the provide the same selection of tools.
Cheers Tim
🇦🇺 Helpful 🏕Vid Tim Shared To My Fuk Book 👍🏻👍🏻
Spare car key has almost caught me out once and never let it happen again. I like to give one to a friend im in a Convoy with or I’ll keep one inside then one without the immobiliser, just a cut blank hidden around the car. Worst comes to worst I’ll smash a window out but atleast I won’t be stranded out bush.
Yeah mate.
I reckon a spare key would be over looked by a lot of people.
That’s great you take one.
Better than having to smash a window.
Thanks mate.
Cheers Tim
Water
Phone Charger
Paper Towel
Fire Extinguisher
Pocket Knife
Head Torch
Spare Key
Spare Batteries
Tarp
Hammer
Zip Ties
Gaffa Tape
Compass
Paper Maps
Everything I would take, the only thing you were missing is a fire extinguisher
That’s an important addition to the list mate.
I don’t even have one.
Thanks heaps.
Cheers Tim
My Amarok has a self locking feature, if you unlock the car and don't open a door within 30 seconds it will lock the car again, i had a incident where i unlocked the car and just nipped the door open to throw the keys and wallet in. Strangely enough the Amarok must not have registered the door opening and locked again, luckily i had a roll of concreters tie-wire and spent 2 hours trying to unlock the car sliding the wire in-between the door and just managed to hit the unlock button, i now keep a spare at all times when i'm out in the bush
Speak with your dealer about turning this feature off.
You have an Amarok? My condolences.
Good video, but that green/black first aid kit.. WAY to much bulk with the folding material, as you show with your lil brown kit. That has just as much, in 1/3 the size. Its good you spoke about training, I see too many videos on first aid kits.. But they never mention they are useless without proper training!
its crazy that modern 4x4s dont come with recovery points.. Shows that modern 4x4s arent designed with offroad in mind.. My '87 SWB Pajero has factory front and rear recovery points.
Mate what tyres have got on your Patrol? Cheers, Paul.
Gday mate
I’ve got the new tread pattern Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac RT.
They’ve only been on about 6 weeks.
So far, I’m very happy with them.
Thanks mate for your feedback
Cheers Tim
You forget tyre plugs
Do Vic Parks allow you to carry a chainsaw? In NSW they are illegal in parks.
Yes, absolutely mate.
I know about the rules in NSW.
It’s crazy that you can’t carry one.
You’ll see chainsaws in pretty much every 4wd in the National Parks of the Vic High Country.
Cheers Tim
12v rattle gun in case I can't break the wheel nuts after my tyres have been rotated.
Not a bad extra item to carry mate.
Thanks for that.
Cheers Tim
Hi Tim, Whats the brand of the first aid kit
I’ll have to look for the snake bit kit mate.
Cheers Tim
Hi tim i was asking about larger kit you showed first in the green satchel not the snake one Thanks@@timbates4wdadventures
@@troutchaser7424 it’s from Ironman. Not sure they still make them.
Hi mate I have been told that the iPhone satellite text is only available in the northern hemisphere , doesn't work in Australia
I've seen guys here talking about using it and a quick Google says it does work here.
Not sure if you can do a test run with it to make sure it's available.
sure does work here in Australia my partner has a iPhone and had used it once when we was out the bush stuck flat tyres and broken down starter motor
Theres plenty of videos on line mate saying the IPhone works as i mentioned in Australia.
As also others have replied below.

Can't you use a snatch strap as a winch extender or for pulling another vehicle?
I did mention that mate about the snatch strap.
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures Missed it.Thanks for filling in the blanks...there are blanks these days :(

Where the stubbie holder mate
Haha lol
They are a must to keep the beers cold. Lol.

Before stubble holders, we used a pair of folded up socks. Just tuck the can into the folded material. It insulates well but don't try putting it down anywhere. It won't stand up.

with all the ctv cameras these days theyll probabaly bee in the bush soon enough
Bow saw.... the truck is diesel and one can of fuel less
Zip ties, duct tape and coathanger wire
Those items are in the next video mate.
Cheers Tim
Toilet paper,matchers or lighters,water,food.
I've seen a few of your videos before and thought they were quite decent... but this video is very disappointing... Why carry a socket adaptor rather than replace the wheel brace to one that suits the wheel lugs - wheel brace is a lot harder to misplace than a single socket... For the type of audience this video is aimed at, a snatch-strap should never be recommended (in my opinion) unless the same video demonstrates at least the basics of safety when snatching and highlighting the dangers of not performing it using best practice methods. I also think you should not confuse Australian viewers re the 112 number for emergency services - that is only required outside of Australia - Any call via any phone provider in Australia to emergency services 000 will automatically use any available cell signal to reach emergency and dialling 112 does NOT give priority access...
There is a reason Australia choose "000" for emergency services - it is easy to remember.
I think there is a moral obligation when making videos like this, which would be to prioritise and be factually correct re safety first, sound advice re non-safety elements second, and rushing out a video to post on youtube to make a buck should be the last priority on anyone's list... just my 2c.
I bet your glad to get that off your chest. 😁
When I bought those alloy wheels, I didn’t know the nuts wouldn’t fit a standard 4 sided wheel brace.
So, I either take the socket or I don’t get the wheel off.
I never make videos for the sake of views mate.
Read the replies as to whether this video has been helpful.
Sorry you didn’t find it that way.
Cheers Tim
Andrew, your a goose mate, pull your head in. Using your logic about the snatch strap one would also need to point out the dangers of operating a motor vehicle, chainsaw, changing a spare wheel ect ect. If someone isnt at all competent in using any piece of equipment then they shouldn't be using it at all, its called common sense, maybe you should get some!
@@damo.77 ah yes. Commonsense. Not so common anymore. Totally agree mate. Unfortunately the world is now full of ‘Safety Sally’s’ all too willing to point out our dangerous ways.
I reckon you'd be a laugh a minute at a party or a boys weekend away Andrew. What's your number, I'll give you a call.
