Thanks for the help...now I have a pretty good shopping list.
It's also very good to know that stock can handle as much off-road as I planned to do. But I will make some mods for the unexpected.
First thing is to get the recovery items.
One thing I did not see on this forum was any mention of a Personal Locator Beacon. Coming from the aviation world, we always carry a PLB in case of engine failure over some remote area. This is probably covered by a good radio, which I need to install.
