Re: Offroad Tool Kit
I carry both a bottle jack - which I use for typical jack uses - and a hi-lift which I use for all sorts of non-jack applications. If had to choose one - I would choose the bottle jack. But before I had a winch, the hi-lift works as a great come-along. With the winch, it can also make a pretty good dead-man anchor to pull from if there is nothing else (at least for my light CJ), can be helpful with getting a tire on/off rim etc.
I also think each of us, based on where we typically wheel and what vehicle we drive, may dictate specifics of that list. Always good to see and discuss what other decide to carry and why.
