    A winch would be useless fo. Me ... I'm going to get a Jack over a highligt because it weighs more ...spare parts would get me like 20 pounds cool down to 80 any other suggestions

    Then make a mount for them? Liberal use of ratchet straps will keep anything in place.

    5 gallons of water and 5 gallons of gas... can't have too much of either one! Or hell, 10 gallons of gas so you can keep going when everyone else has to head home.

    Just mount you a set of ratchet straps to the bed wall and lock them down. Between the two that should be about 70-75lbs.

    Toolbox and spares was a good idea and a hell of a lot more than 20lbs. Jerry cans with fuel and water were a good idea and you rejected those. All so you can go with a 3rd spare that you'll only use if you hit a set of spike strips?

    I knew this thread was gonna be retarded.
