Want to make your off-roading adventures even better? Get these four key sport truck accessories.

1. A Recovery Kit

Even the toughest sport trucks can end up getting stuck on an off-road adventure.

That's where a recovery kit comes in handy.

You can buy pre-made recovery kits or build your own, but the essentials include:

  • A recovery strap and bow shackles so another vehicle can pull you out.
  • A tree saver and snatch block (if your sport truck has an electric wig).
  • A Hi-Lift jack to hand-winch yourself back onto the trail.
  • Recovery boards that provide traction in mud, sand, and snow.

If you plan on off-roading in the snow, it's wise to include a sturdy pair of leather work gloves. It'll offer the grip and warmth needed when working in the cold conditions.

2. A Tire Repair Kit

If you off-road in more extreme conditions, it's possible that your sport truck tires will end up incurring minor damage. If you aren't equipped to fix the issue, you could be stuck with calling a tow truck. If you have a tire repair kit on hand, you can fix the leak and buy time while you get to a repair shop.

3. A Jump Starter

It never hurts to have a way to jump start your sport truck on hand, especially if you'll be off-roading alone. A jump starter will provide the power needed to jump start your engine and some models can provide up to 30 jumps on a single charge.

A jump starter can also serve as a battery bank, allowing you to recharge smartphones and other devices during your adventure.

4. A Custom Aluminum Sport Truck Bumper

Your sport truck will be facing a variety of obstacles on the open road. Protect your vehicle with a custom aluminum bumper! In the event of a collision, such as hitting a deer, the bumper can provide valuable protection for your sport truck's various parts. This can lead to a much lower repair bill!
