Default Roadside emergency kits

So just curious if anyone has a kit of tools/supplies that they carry in their carts for roadside issues? My cart is a 1992, and We drive it daily. Sometimes for well over an hour straight without really stopping. Figured it’s just a matter of time before I flush out some issues... and thought this would be a great place to get ideas for spares/tools to carry along for the ride to ensure me and my flock make it back home without walking.

maybe a spare spark plug/ wrench? fuses? pliers to get fuel lines on and off (i dont have any clamps)


where are you going that you're driving it an hour away? seems like it might be faster to take a car?

Haha. It would be faster. We just cruise around town and enjoy the drive.

Clamps and pliers sound like a good idea. A plug wrench though.. if I have spark plug issues out on the road, I would think that I have much bigger issues that I wouldn’t be able to solve roadside anyway..

I installed up some quick attach hooks to the front and back for easy tow point attachment. It's also great for proper securing points when trailering the cart.

I carry a few sling straps, a ratchet strap, flashlight and headlamp, small can WD40, a multitool, roll of tape and decent knife. I also have some lighters and a 12v cable to charge my phone.

Lastly, I never let the tank get below 1/2, that way I figure no matter what happens I'll have enough gas to get home.

Great ideas. What do you store them in? I wish there was a trunk option for the DS bag well. Unfortunately the only one I’ve found is like a tote and won’t work with my back seat.

Got ya. I’m hoping to put a dash in with speakers so I won’t have those spaces much longer.

I keep all sorts of stuff in the glove boxes. Gloves, tools for goat trimming, wasp spray and whatever has frequently been used. I usually have a tow strap and a machete in the bed to pull my kids out of wherever they happen get their ezgo stuck lol

But I rarely leave my property except to go get the mail. Occasionally we will cruise some of the dirt roads or drive down to the river, but 95% is on my property so I'm never very far from my tools
