- You must be asking yourself - Is there any specific offroad gear or tools I should carry in my 4x4? Well, speaking of offroading, 4-wheeling, 4x4-ing, overlanding (whatever you want to call it), there are some pieces of basic recovery gear, tools, accessories, or items that you need to bring with you.
In this short video, we cover the top 10 must-have things that you need to get before hitting the trail. Of course, the list of nice-to-have offroad equipment could be endless, but there are a few that are truly essential. And we are not talking about some expensive modifications or tuning on your vehicle. In fact, almost all of these items are fairly cheap but their help is invaluable.
So here is what I believe you should have (and what I also always carry with me at the back of my Jimny): some decent all-terrain tires, same size spare tire, a shovel, an axe, an appropriate jack, snatch strap (or thick rope), a couple of shackles, some aftermarket recovery points, a basic tool kit, and an air compressor. I’ve also thrown several bonus/nice-to-have items too.

thanks George, i bought a 2000 jimny a couple of months ago (same colour as yours) its a little mountain goat and i love it, thanks for the tips and good luck from all us Jimny owners here in Ireland.
Blue Jimny - the best color :) Congrats on your purchase!
Great work man! Keep the great content coming 👊👊
Thanks! Will do!
I like this video. Good job
I'm glad you like it
Excellent information 👍
Glad you think so!
Good stuff :)
Thanks!
👍 Bravo!

Hi I’m very enjoy your video, I want to ask you in vey cold weather like snow for example is better petrol car? Or diesel car? Thanks
Gasoline doesn't freeze up - for that reason alone, petrol would be my choice. 😉
Great video. Super nice car. Where did you buy your rear recovery points ?
thanks for sharing
They are from Jimnybits 😉
What else would you add to this must-have 4-wheeling list?
@Matt Hanson In fact, I included duck tape and black zip ties at the end of the video in the "bonus, nice to have" section" :D I agree about the knife and flash light.
Thanks a lot for the support mate!
and with the equipment jimny's trunk is full 😉 ooops
You will be surprised how much camping geat can be fitted in the trunk if you are smart about organizing :) (with the back seats down of course)
@@The4x4Lab i can fold only one back seat because of my son.... but for a crazy weekend car is ok
Looks like a tow strap rather than a snatch strap. Also looks like those aren't rated shackles, bow shackles are superior for 4wd recovery.
I carry both D shackles (that have a smaller loop designed to take high loads in line) and bow shackles (with a curved design, good in taking loads from many directions) so i can use each depending on the need and situation... I haven't gone into these details in this video as it's a beginners guide:)
Hi George what size maxis tyres do u run on ur jimny?
Hi, there is another video on this channel featuring an in-depth review of the Jimny ;)
Where did you get these recovery points from?
I got them from Jimnybits
@@The4x4Lab Thanks. I’ll have a look
Thanks for this video, mate. Very encouraging, especially for a noob like myself. I have a JB43 as well and I'm considering to buy some basic mods for it. Are your rear recovery points from Jimnybits UK? Can you tell me more about your winch plate and front recovery points?
The rear recovery points are from Jimnybits, yes. The front ones are custom mode along with the winch plate - perhaps not that durable but If I get stuck, I do a self recovery with the winch. I just use the front recovery points for a double line pull, so for that purpose, they are more than enough.
