i am just trying to get an idea of what you guys would do to or put on your truck to make it "trail ready"?

so my truck is basicly stock 2000 2500 long bed single cab with 35's and i guess blocks in the rear. i put some tubular control arms on it.
i am thinking about things like bumpers, lights, winch, compressor, electical outlets, roll bar, full size spare, some tools in some sort of tool box (i dont like those big diamond plate ones, they are tacky IMO)...

what else can i get and what do you guys like?

 

BEER

basically, after drinking enough, any vehicle istrail ready

i just had to be a smart ***

 

HEH yeah that was a givin, thats like say "gas"
haha

 

you really dont need a winch and an air compressors and all that jazz...... they cant hurt, but their not a necessity.

for me, a couple shovels and a long tow strap and i go, but i dont do quite as serious wheelin as some of these other guys. i have been in a couple situations where a small chainsaw would have been helpful, but you would need a way to secure it as you drive. making it trail ready all depends on how serious your wheelings gonna be.

 

+1 on shovel and tow strap. small chain saw, w/ gas, chain oil in small containers. basic tools including chain saw tools, file. also come-along, 100' 1/4in cable, some hooks. jumper cables, bottle jack. tire plugs, first aid kit, small fishing pole, ratchet straps, duct tape, small wal-mart 12 volt emergency type air compressor that runs on cig. lighter. if you don't want a big tool box, then the old-fashioned snap on lid rubbermaid containers work good for holding all this stuff. i use a bigger one for the saw and shallower ones for the other stuff. they are waterproof to rain unless you sink them.

 

o yea, i forgot come-along. would have come in handy earlier this week.

 

a hoodie what?
