Overlanding Gear: 5 Must-Have Accessories
Overlanding is about adventure and exploration, and your 4x4 vehicle can only go so far without essential overlanding gear and accessories.
At Artemis Overland, we have everything you need, whether you’re a weekend warrior or a full-time overlanding adventurer. In this blog post, we’ll feature five must-have accessories to add to your collection of overlanding gear.
Rooftop Tent

It’s hard to find a photo of an overlanding vehicle without a rooftop tent attached! There’s a reason for that: Rooftop tents are the very best option for comfort and safety while camping. Hardshell designs like the Alu-Cab Gen 3 Expedition are incredibly easy to assemble, and are weatherproof. Because you’re off the ground, you’ll be away from any creepy crawlies and wildlife that may lurk around your campsite.

Winch and Recovery Kit
Winches and winch accessory kits are essential pieces of overlanding gear. Winches are used to recover 4x4 vehicles stuck in mud, sand or any other sticky situation. Models like the Comeup DV-91 24-V Winch have a rated line-pull of 9,000 pounds, and also include a thermometric LED indicator on the hand-held switch that automatically alerts when the motor is overheating.

Air Kit

Air compressors and deflation kits are a must-have for off-roading vehicles. The VIAIR 400P-Automatic Portable Compressor Kit featured above is a 33% duty cycle unit capable of pressures up to 150 PSI and can be operated for up to 40 minutes at a time before needing to be rested (at up to 40 PSI).

Traction Boards

A winch isn’t the only recovery essential for overlanding vehicles--if you’re planning on doing some serious off-roading, you’ll want to invest in traction boards. At Artemis, we carry Action Trax, which are 100% made in America, and are designed with input from elite military units and winning Baja 1000 racers. When you’re stuck in the mud, you’ll want nothing less!

Lighting

It gets dark out in the wild--so you’ll want to illuminate your adventures with high-quality LED lighting mounts. At Artemis, we carry top-quality brands like Cali-Raised and Rago, from bumper mounts to ditch lights. Improve night-time visibility by adding LED lighting to your overlanding vehicle!
