Bottle water or water purifier
Tow strap and come-along.
Good Hiking boots
Tire gauge
Duct tape, WD-40
Bring a well equipped tool box
Topo map from a hiking or 4WD shop
CB or two radios are a must.
Compass if the car doesn't have one.
A GOOD sleeping bag

I don't know how it would fit, but a Hi-Lift could come in handy.

BTW, if you don't have rock rails or at least side step, be careful on the rocks. The rocker panel is the hardest part of the body to fix.

Spare parts, well your kind of stuck there. The IFS is almost unserviceable on the trail. Perhaps U-joints for the driveshaft. Everything else, like axleshafts are too new. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Might I add to the list:
Food, Power Bars can keep you alive for many days with water,
Extra clothes,
Small air compressor, good plug kit and a large can of fix-a-flat (fix-a-flat to be used as a last measure since it will probably screw up the tire pressure sensors)
GPS with topo map (Magellan Sportrak TOPO is ideal for off-road and comes with all the TOPO maps needed for the lower 48 and most of Alaska).
Handgun-preferably .40 cal or larger (my personal preference) (But only if you are licensed, should not break the law).
No Handgun? Large Knife

Could you mount the Hi-Lift to the roof crossbows?
