Your going to get more hits with a better thread title than what you have!IMO
I'll be the first, spare axles and u joints.

 

just go with a buddy with another jeep.
that has saved my *** a couple different trips haha

 

Yup, never wheel alone! Unless you don't mind walking.

 

Here, it's a long on going question.This might move you along quicker.
http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f7/what-do-you-carry-those-long-off-road-trips-try-list-long-598632/

 

This list would be highly dependant on what type of roads/trails you are running to get to these isolated spots. I've been some places that were many miles from the nearest help but the trails were just unimporved roads so pretty much all I was concerned about was common hand tools, duct tape, water, fuel, sleeping bag, food, first aid, personal protection devices,... Other places with rougher trails I would want to pack a fairly extensive selection of repair parts/fluids and more tools/repair supplies in addition to the personal survival items.

 

Wheeling alone (and then the inevitable breakdown) will provide lots of stories later. Well assuming you are found and don't die a horrible death of dehydration or eaten by something...:fistlaugh:

 

I guess maybe I didn't do a very good job in asking my question. All of your responses are correct. I already do pack all the spare fluids, duct tape, etc and I am not traveling alone. Usually it is with 2 other very similar TJ's. So the sorts of things I'm wondering about are things such as a crank postion sensor and similar things that.

 

I carry a spare distributor pick up. If I had a spare cranks sensor I'd carry one of those as well. An Ignition coil can leave you stranded as well.
Here's a quick run down of some other stuff I carry:
Fuses
Electrical tape
Crimps
Crimp pliers
Butane soldering iron w/solder
Drag link(snapped mine in half last Saturday)
Tie rod
Tie rod tool(on my want list)
Assorted bolts
Spare axle shafts
Spare drive shafts(don't have yet)
Engine belt
Oil
JB weld quick set
RTV
Water (can be used for drinking or coolant)
Brake fluid
Tire plug kit

 

You can never carry enough parts to be prepared for every possible problem. If the broken rig can roll, you can always tow it out. Another option is to swap parts between rigs. Your crank position sensor goes bad, use one from another rig to get yours off the trail and then go back for the other rig. Granted it would take a rig with the same parts you have and it would require at least three rigs to leap frog back and forth but it's an option. It's a pain in the butt but it can get your rig back to civilization.

 

A Trailer to haul it back home with!!!!

 

This lady has the right idea, but her strapping techniques need work. Just carry a spare rig.

 

portable welder

 

Cityrock hit it on the money!If you are that worried...trailer your rig!:thumbsup:

 

I add two big hammers as the tie rod tool, separates ball joints, tie rods, track bars evertyime. Hold one against the part and smack it with the other. And they are handy for knocking things back in place

 

Use JB weld or some similar epoxy to fix a hole in the oil pan. We have do this with a few (beer!) cans. cut the ends off the can and cut it lengthwise to make a flat patch. We useally cut circles out of it and start with the smallest circle(oval, square, ect.) that will cover the hole or crack. JB weld the patch in place(if you have the right kind of RVT, un a little bead of it in there too. While giving that time to cure cut another patch that is larger than the first and JB weld it on too. you've got to make sure that the oil pan is clean of grease or the JB weld wont stick too well. Brake Parts Cleaner works well. Once you have 2 or 5 patches stuck on with the JB weld give it time to cure. Fill with oil and start er up and check for leaks. If it still leaks apply more RVT.

A length of chain and some varying lengths of bolts, along with washers and nuts can be used to isolate and hold suspension parts/links in place.

 

lil off topic but hey...

 

OMG..... That is awesome!!!! That cherokee took a beating!!!

 

A bar of soap will plug a fuel tank,
fuller earth (cat litter) to soak up any spills.
Duct Tape, need I say more
Ratchet straps
Axles
U Joints
JB Weld
6 Pack of beer, this doesn't fix anything but you care less after drinking.
