Tool Kit/Vehicle Supplies
What do you seasoned Baja travellers include in your tool kit when driving?
We are driving down for our first time in 3 weeks in a pick-up truck and would like some ideas on what to bring (besides the obvious jack/jumper
cables/jerry can).
We will be travelling Baja and Mexico for roughly 4 months.
Thanks in advance!

Do you plan to go off-roading? Where are you going?

A toolbox with all the normal wrenches, sockets, screw drivers, allen and star wrenches etc. A few tie wraps, a little wire, electrical and steel.
Misc bolts, nuts, screws and steel strap tape, the kind you can strap up a muffler with. Plugs for tires. Food and water. Never pass a gas station
with less than 3/4 tank. Fuses. Depending on where you go a high lift jack is handy. Extra fluid for the truck like oil, tranny etc.
