Tire plugs, flat repair kit

That's the one I carry. Haven't needed to use it yet, but seems to be good quality. Since I've never actually had to use it I'm hesitant to recommend it, but if you want my opinion after playing around with the kit, then I'd say get it. I want to say it's cheaper than the ARB kit too.

 

The more I think about, I might as well get the $10 slime/Victor kits. I already have pliers, tire guage, etc in the truck so don't really need to pay for more than that.
58 Siesta mentioned getting valve stems/cores from a tire shop which isnt a bad idea either. Thanks for all the input!

 

Be careful with that, some of the cheap kits have super hard plugs that will not seal 100%. Get a proper kit, you don't want to find out what you have sucks balls when you trying to repair the tire.

 

I've put in at least half a dozen plugs, and ran for months on a couple of them. None failed to seal.

 

People asked about extra stuff , heck ya u need extra stuff!!! i keep an old 12v Dewalt drill laying around after I got 18v lithium makitas..... the drill saved my as a few times, def a good addition to kit... also a pair of pliers, channel lock type or other to extract the nail/ screw and a razor knife to cut away the rubber if you can't get purchase on the nail... plugged 285/75/16s a half dozen times, countless more on my atvs, never failed once some of the atvs and the truck have had plugs in for years/10s of thousands of miles

 

Good call on the tools. I don't carry power tools, but I carry a plethora of pliers, vise grips, fence tools, etc...in the truck at all times. My truck is a rolling tool box.

 

Don't forget zip ties and a ball point pen. I actually rescued a 4runner while camping in a national park a few years back - a coolant hose had rubbed through on the fan from some sloppy work that had been done - the body of the pen was cut to make a hose union, and two zip ties from my door pocket secured it.
