RV FEATURE GAYE’S TOOLBOX AND SPARES AN INSPIRATION Gaye is an inspiration, an older, single female who has hit the road with her trusty mate, Indy. Their home on wheels is a slide-on camper, so it was with interest that we peeked inside her toolbox, and asked what she thought she might need as she travels the open road. Gaye spent a lot of time googling, talking to the experts, and she has come up with a toolbox that will help to keep her on the road. With limited space, Gaye had toolboxes built under the tray of the ute to house her spare parts and emergency gear. “Although I am not mechanically minded, I can do minor stuff if I do break down,” Gaye said. “Hopefully, I will have the gear needed to have someone help me get back on the road and into the next town.” 32 \ • Tyre repair kit • Tyre pressure gauge, pump, spare tyre valves and caps, wheel brace and jack • Maxtrax and recovery kit • Cordless drill, screwdrivers, spanners, pliers, wrenches, spare hoses and belts, spark plugs, filters, engine fluids, ring clamps, sealant, wiper blades • Safety triangles • Duct tape • Spare globes, fuses, small wire roll, cable ties • Hammer, mallet, small shovel, ratchet straps • Full first aid kit • Torch and spare batteries FOLLOW GAYE’S TRIP FACEBOOK NANAONTHEROAD.COM.AU
