- HiLift jack
- Shovel
- Extra tools (including a large knife)

I just see pavement with my 2WD, but I keep a First Aid kit, a set of jumper cables, basic wrenches, ratchets, and sockets; a flashlight, a pair of gloves, a basic recovery strap and the factory tool kit with bottle jack.

I have only used the jumper cables when helping other people.

I am sure serious off-roaders will have more, especially in the recovery and emergency gear department.

I got those items on me too. Forgot to mention them. And synthetic shackles to go with the recovery strap. Original post now edited to add them.

If it's not a K-Bar, it's not a "large knife"

I carry what's on your list, except the Hi-Lift. I do have a decent hydraulic jack, though.
I also carry a set of belts, hoses, wires, dist cap and rotor, plugs, etc.
Every spring I give it a tune up, replace what's installed with new, and put the removed parts in my kit. Throw the previous ones away. Saved me a couple times!

Have fun, all!
