What's in your Jeep tool kit?

Thanks I’ll study what you’ve got. This last summer I had to turn around 4 times for 18-24” trees down. Small ones I’ve been able to winch out of the way, or just go over if their on the ground. My regular Stihl is just too big for a camping/Jeeping trip.

It's a Craftsman 46cc 18" . I only have one old picture of it in my Jeep but I still carry it in about the same way. By putting the case with saw blade toward the rear, a lot of stuff can still be stacked around it.

Sorry if this has been talked about, but I think I want to start carrying a chainsaw with me, but they take up so much room. Anyone else carry one? Have you found one that’s easy to stow away?

I have a battery powered one from when I used to overland. Went on a trip that called for one, purchased it when I came home and haven't needed it since. Still new / unused if you are interested.

Probably wouldn’t be as good as a chainsaw but you could get a Milwaukee sawzall tool only to match your other tool there and get some long wood blades. It would work for smaller trees too

That electric Stihl is interesting. It could help clear a decent sized tree of a trail with out keeping a gas smelling chainsaw inside the jeep with you. It wouldn’t help you clear the Mackenzie, but for and occasional tree, it might be a nice piece of kit to carry.

I actually have that setup already too, lol. Turns out this corded Milwaukee tool was just in there for a few days while I was helping a buddy. This thing just crapped out on me after about 10 years of hard use. I used it for cutting a ton of steel over the years. I'll definitely be getting another one. It's a great tool.
 
Maybe the Perfect tool bag for my Jeep

Howdy, I just bought myself a birthday present, the Yorktown tool roll bag from Atlas 46, a company based in Missouri. It looks great from the videos. I love the idea of small pouches to hold the different types of tools and the incorporated wrench roll bag.

Website is www.Atlas46.com the bag I like is here https://www.atlas46.com/products.html#!/Yorktown-Tool-Roll/p/88260008/category=14466133

Its not cheap but I thought some of you guys would appreciate the design and its "made in the greatest country in the world". Their words but I would agree. I have no affiliation with them but wanted to share. I have no experience with the company so I'll wait till it shows up to confirm. They could use a little of Eddies help with the editing and this bag is backordered but they are making a new batch.

Cheers.

Exodus Jeeps has these for sale for those that want to support a forum vendor.

Yep. We have 4 of them in stock if anyone’s interested. Yes they are pricy but extremely well made.

Great idea for the nuts and bolts. You put the bottle jack in the tool bag? Nice idea as well.

I need to off road with you, then I won’t have to carry anything.
 
Nice tire patch kit.

It would be a shame if someone used it to cut into your soft top and steal stuff.

Actually some idiot did cut into his soft top last January during the Lucerne Valley run...I think someone was trying to relieve him of his fridge...
