What to Bring When You Ride - Our Current UTV Gear Load-out

[@jackmeloff3335]

We ride in the mountains here in the Philippines, yes the Philippines LOL, but there is not a big gang of people to ride with unless you ride with the 4X4 guys. They are a bit slow for us but we hand with them for safety sometimes. But we carry everything but the kitchen sink!! Get compact stuff, and don’t skimp on your cases, its worth the money to keep your stuff secure and dry! Try to keep everything neat and in its place, we use foam pads to keep everything from banging around inside the case. We have a full up tool set and like you 2 said, don’t spend a million dollars on tools for the road, just make sure they are somewhat dependable, if you know what I mean. Baby wipes are king, have them in ziplock bags everywhere you can find a place to put them, LOL you will be happy to have them!!! Also we carry a small camping setup, tent,dishes, cook pot, BUT NO GAS! , don need that to blow up on a hot day!!! Along with the camping gear, small fishing rod and a lure hook kit, big time FIRST AID KIT!! And make sure it is easy to get to and have everything in one place, you never know when something is going to happen!!! Fire extinguishers on both inside rails so they don’t get whacked by anything, we have the small 3lb that you can get re-serviced if you use them or if they go dead, I like them better than the one shot ones, but up to U. Spare tire I built my own rack for. Belt, tie-rod ends, tie rod u can hide on the underside of your roof and hold it with Velcro straps or zip ties, extra boots and grease,boot ties with the wrench. D rings and wench sheaves, tree straps, you can do a lot with a wench and straps to get yourself out of a bad spot! For us the biggest thing is putting on to much weight, we took everything and weighed it came out to an extra 100lbs + the extra tire. Make sure U balance everything out and set your shocks so the will handle and perform with the extra load! Also have VHF/UHF radio with extendable antenna, and we can move it to different mounting points. Intercom and 500gb of music, Lights everywhere if you ride at night it is nice to be able to light up the whole area to see what’s out there, along with flash lights and yes headlamps to. We have a two battery set up with solar panels on top with a charge controller to keep everything good! You can get the small mono panels everywhere pretty cheap and just Velcro them to the top of the buggy really good if you get stuck and need to charge something! Farm jack with an adapter with hooks on it works great for a lot of stuff and a plate for the bottom to spread out the load. Custom snorkel for the river crossings and sand pads to get out of the holes. I guess for the most part thats about it, LOL. Last time we went out we got stuck and broke really bad but we didn’t panic we had everything we needed to get fixed and back on the road, we just took our time... OH and in your snack box throw a few MRE’s in there if you can get them, they are great when you really need to eat!!!! We ride hard and depend on ourselves a lot so we probably carry more than most of U would carry, but sometimes you have to think out of the box to get you back to camp/home! Good Luck to all and I hope this help guys getting out there into stuff, remember ride hard and be safe and most important HAVE FUN!!!! Later

[@andrewdejong9728]

In northern Utah Mountains I like to carry space blankets, waterproof matches and fire starter as well as tools for the rig. Thanks, Deranged

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Great input thanks! -Garrett

[@FreakyBeanie]

Honestly, we just need Dave. He has everything lol

[@leslewis1800]

CHAIN SAW!!! I have heard of several folks that had to make a several mile hike to get help to clear the trail of downed timber from high winds that hit the area they were riding in so they could get back to their trucks. The battery powered saws with an extra battery work very well.

[@brandonwilde3536]

i take a chain saw its a small one

[@Dronerangerspro]

Good stuff. The only difference for me is the individual packaged wet wipes because I hate how the other styles always dry out to quickly once opened

[@jjcox7969]

Shovel, Bowsaw, Fire starters (at least a lighter), electrical tape, duct tape, all included in my load-out.

[@mikem9953]

To save space I'll put an extra hose clamp on an existing hose, tape a straight barbed end fitting to a fuel line, as far as hardware, there's usually plenty of holes to plug with 'dumby bolts', spare key because the 'one you have at home' does ZERO good! To me sockets are a waste of space, to much weight, usually a mess and easy to lose. Where as a wrench takes longer, but also takes up less space and will fit in tight places, and usually an 8, 10, 12, 14 and 17mm will do it all, or close. Harbor Freight Allen and/or Torxs bit set will work. Next time you prep your UTV at home, do it all out of your tool kit, then you'll know. First aid kits, I got into a pretty bad wreck on a dual spot bike, and was bleeding profusely, took out my family Dollar first aid kit and instantly saturated all the 'bandaids. Not sure what you need, but make it up for accidents, not hangnails. I try to find tools that have a dual purpose if possible. And finally, a Leatherman. a Just my 2 cents

[@cliffmorain7215]

Tri fold shovel, tarp and fire starter, small axe or small limb saw, small cooking pot and water. Just a few things I take. para cord

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Tri fold shovel is a great idea and you have some other items that are very good as well. 👍 -Garrett

[@p-nut4209]

Just an FYI if you didn’t know, the RZR in the video needs a set of tender springs. Because they will break riding around collapse like that. If you don’t want to buy aftermarkets then put the fronts on the rear and get four seater fronts to put on the two-seater front. My fronts broke on the trail and got wedged in between the reservoir and the shock body. And thanks for the good tips.....

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Thanks for the heads up. Polaris definitely need to improve their design as Those springs aren’t truly tender springs. Their only purpose is to put downward pressure on the main spring. They definitely aren’t designed for rider comfort. But yes you can do different springs and even go to a true dual rate with crossover rings. Thanks for watching, -Dave

[@pmh7917]

I have 2 of the Harbor Freight 12v compressors (100psi & 150psi) but honestly a floor style bicycle pump works awesome and barely takes up any space/weight. These tires are such low psi anyway.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Great input 👍 -Garrett

[@JeffBishopCarrollton]

A glass windshield for the new KRX 1000 is only $649. $100. more than lexan. On the east cost they work well. If you get a chip they can be repaired also. I like your video's, keep up the good work.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

We sell a really nice glass windshield for $575 shipped. Check it out. derangedoffroad.com/collections/utv-glass-windshields/products/new-kawasaki-teryx-krx1000-front-glass-windshield-2020

[@davesherri6768]

With all the electrical add-ons we usually have on out SxS, a fire extinguisher is probably not a terrible idea.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Good call! A lot of people carry them and I plan to add one to my load out. -Joe

[@tomgiovanni5885]

Even when I carry extra gas I still carry a safety siphon all the time. It gives you the ability to transfer gas from one machine to another. Check it out.

[@scottbronson2113]

Have you guys done a video on the belt change out on the teryx just having mine done but I think I'll do it myself next time

[@DerangedOffRoad]

I probably will soon when mine is due. -Garrett

[@mikewill709]

Thanks for the video, lots of good information. I need to start putting my box together.

[@randysmith4344]

Great video! How about a description/link to your compressors and battery pack jump starters. Thanks

[@chrispaul9068]

Nice, informative video! Moving to Kanab next spring/summer of 2021 from Illinois. Purchased a piece of property in Vermillion Cliffs. Having a house built there. Looking forward to all the beauty that awaits me! I have my eye on the new Yamaha YXZ. I guess it’s just personal preference. Good luck and keep the videos coming! 👍🏻😉

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Lots of good riding out in the Kanab area. Barracks Trail, Hog Canyon, Coral Pinks Sand Dunes just to name a few, but I'm sure you're well aware of those areas. Thanks for watching.

[@whitetailroots9702]

Soft shackles would work well for you attachment points.

[@vernshein5430]

I put a spare tire on my Pioneer 520, first mod!

[@pauldombrowski7555]

How about a video on the tools that come with machine and whats good, whats not. What its for and what could work better. Thank you

[@mikel9567]

None of the tools that come with the machine are good. They are cheap and cumbersome to use. Unless you have a specialty tool that comes with the bike you don't want to rely on the tools that come with them.

[@americansoldier7776]

One thing that you all did not mention that I thought was a great idea is a tire plug kit. They’re only about five bucks at AutoZone and they could be a lifesaver

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Yeah good point!

[@ClintL63]

Get one of those Rogue Powersports (windshields) Windscreens!

[@rutasoffroad3930]

Good stuff

[@ywr969]

disposable gloves. saves your hands from getting greasy from trail-side repairs.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Good point!

[@kevinlewis651]

Man how the heck do you guys get your machines so clean? They look brand new.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Lol! Just have to blow the desert dust off. No mud around here to worry about

[@steelernation4818]

Here in northern Maine after riding I would have to spend hours getting my machine that clean. 😁

[@Saltshaker2016]

Kinetic energy strap. Just saying. Great video.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

We have one now. 👍

[@DavidBowen]

For $50 you can replace the glass in your windshield.

[@DerangedOffRoad]

$50 to replace automotive glass? I couldn't even get a piece of Lexan for under $70

[@aaronwitner2001]

And when you do the frozen water bottles you don’t have to carry water with you because you have the frozen bottles filled with water and that can be drinking water

[@DerangedOffRoad]

I take those as well 👍 -Garrett

[@DerangedOffRoad]

I'm going to have to buy better water bottles. The last few times I've taken frozen ones they end up with a hole in them. Guess that's what I get fit buying walmart water. -Dave

[@tomlemke4153]

If you ever do videos on shocks do not recommend King shocks they do not stand behind their product

[@joseph-greatvids.terriblew1748]

Some mechanics wire

[@DUNEATV]

Seems like no matter how much you carry you’ll never have what you need...

[@DerangedOffRoad]

Sometimes that is completely true! -Garrett

[@DUNEATV]

Deranged Off-Road Nice video...you guys are growing!

[@brocksmitherman9782]

We carry a portable toilet for the ladies on our machine
