Is your 4x4 Ready for Canada
« on: February 15, 2013, 01:29:28 PM »
With end of the ice fishing season looming in the close future, it’s a great time to start putting together a must do list for this year’s trip to Canada. That list should involve getting your vehicle prepped.

Get the proper paperwork – registration, license, up-to-date insurance and emergency contact info


Tools – Tire plug kit, utility knife, auto fuses, tape, tire pressure gauge, extra flash lights (with batteries), ratchet straps ( you can never have too many ), air compressor, 4 way tire iron ( I personally use a cordless impact wrench ), light bulbs, mat to lay on, bug spray, TP, rags, basic tools, heavy duty tow strap, spare key


Check – your tires, including your spare tire. Important Note : Take the time to lower the spare tire to insure the storage cable is working properly –especially you Chevy/GMC owners out there. 90% of them fail and you can’t get the tire down… speaking from personal experience


If your tires need replacing, replace them. Canadian logging roads are murder on aged tires.

Replace your air filter


Trailers - get an extra set of bearings for your trailer… it’s a must! Check lights and uneven tire wear. Check your spare tire and I recommend you bring two spares

I have a whole packing list I sent out to my guests... if you're interested in getting a copy, PM or email me chad@pashalake.com

Good luck!
