..just GOTTA add. GREAT thread! I just bought my little Millard Micro van (Zooby certified) so yeah.. thanks! Food for thought (or at least the required sauces.)
I aways bring these no matter what:
-backpacking machete
-100' 550 cord
-Compass
-Toilet paper
-Cig lighter
-Handgun
-Flashlight (go USA!)
-multi tool knife
And of course the stuff that's normally in the car.
I tend to do more Ultra-light weight backpacking though.
My jacking plate is rectangular with rounded corners and sized to fit inside the rim of my spare wheel. It is made of 1/2" thick slices of 2" x 2" end grain balsa with a piece of aluminum sheet araldited to either side. I had to make a heap up years ago as an apprentice for flooring in aircraft. Surprisingly strong as all the load is in compression and very light. Remember every kilo you cart around will increase your fuel consumption and reduce your useful load for more impotrant stuff.
if duct tape was listed anywhere i missed it- and a spare cooler full or brewhammers in case the first one runs low
yeah i thought so. i got it from this site https://www.kangarootentcity.com.au/welcome/page1.php
