Tips for choosing your 4WD & outdoor gear
Choose gear that matches the unique challenges of New Zealand’s terrain and weather. Consider your destination, vehicle compatibility, and durability against rain, mud, and rugged terrain.

Invest wisely and check reviews from Kiwi adventurers who know what works here.
Stay travel-ready with quality equipment
Planning a road trip through places like the Ahuriri Conservation Park, Banks Peninsula, or the famous Ninety Mile Beach? Being prepared with the right 4WD and outdoor equipment is key. Shop essential gear for a safe and comfortable exploration:
- 4WD recovery gear: Winches, straps, and shackles to safely get unstuck.
- Camping equipment: Rainwater tank and camp lighting for outdoor use.
- Portable power: Dual batteries, solar panels, and power stations to run devices.
- Vehicle protection: Bash plates and caravan covers to guard against impacts.
- Navigation & communication: GPS and two-way radios to stay connected.
- Storage solutions: Roof racks, drawers, and cargo barriers to organise your gear.
- Lighting: Driving lights, light bars, and work lights for better visibility at night.
How do I maintain my 4WD and outdoor equipment?
Keep your gear ready for your next journey through New Zealand’s diverse landscapes. Follow these simple care tips:
- Clean after use: Remove dirt, sand, mud, and saltwater residue, especially after coastal trips like the East Cape.
- Inspect regularly: Look for wear and tear from rocky tracks and dense bush areas.
- Store properly: Protect gear from sun exposure common in Central Otago and moisture in Fiordland.
- Lubricate moving parts: Keep hinges and mechanical components smooth, especially important after wet or muddy conditions.
- Charge batteries: Ensure your portable power solutions are fully charged for remote excursions.
- Repair promptly: Fix minor damage early to avoid issues on long remote drives like the Heaphy Track or Desert Road.
