Road trip check list

[simonjk]

If I posted this is the wrong place pleasr move it.

My wife and I are going in a trip this weekend which will cover about 14hrs driving and around 1000 miles. What would I need to check before leaving other than the normal fluids, battery, and tires. I will be running 37s for the first time on the interstate. About my rig, it has 4" lift and 37s. Heavy bumpers, winch, and will be loaded with about 800-1000 of equipment and persons. Am I missing anything to check. Brake fluids, oil level, collant, wipers, bulbs, and battery power. Thanks in advance

You should be fine especially if a lot of those miles have you passing through towns.

 

[simonjk]

Ok thanks. I didn't know if I needed to check anything else on the jks

Well, if you've been doing a lot of wheeling recently, I would go through and check your suspension bolts and lug nuts.

If you drive it everyday just go. If its safe enough to bring you to work everyday and drive on the highway it will be safe to drive you anywhere else.

Obviously air pressure too.

I've done a good bit of wheeling lately, I will double check all my suspension, and air pressure should be good. Although, what's a good pressure to run in 37 mud grapplers on the highway for comfort
