Recovery Gear
What we actually carry for recovery and remote travel
The recovery equipment fitted to or carried with our Y62 Patrol — winch, recovery points, air and the gear we rely on when things go sideways.
Back to 4WD
Recovery gear is only useful if it is rated for the job, fitted properly, and actually with you. This is the equipment we personally carry and use on our Y62.
Winch & Recovery Points
VRS 12,500lb winch
A fully loaded touring wagon needs a winch rated appropriately for its weight. The wireless remote allows safer and easier operation, particularly when travelling solo.
Roadsafe front recovery points
Proper recovery points ensure any recovery can be carried out safely and correctly.
Air & Tyre Management
ARB Compressor & Pressure Control

ARB Pressure Control system
The pressure control module with Bluetooth removes guesswork and allows accurate, repeatable pressure settings, making tyre management easier and more consistent.
