A working cb/cell phone and knowing where you are matters also.

Ive used these and put together a first aid kit for my emergency bag at home.

Really making a first aid kit is relatively easy. OP, also matters what you need it for. General purpose injuries when wrenching or full blown kit for long expeditions with no hospital in sight. Generally if its a lightweight kit, you don't need to go crazy with the amount you keep in it.

Or you could buy a premade kit, and add to it as you see fit...the site above has many, many options for kits, check 'em out, I posted the page of first responder bags, they have many other types of kits as well...

I've used the 151 piece First Responder for 3 yrs now and have added quite a bit to it to fit our personal needs. Nice kit for the money and compact for the XJ we have a larger one in the Motor Home but lots of room there to carry everything.

Thanks for all the input! The Nutnfancy videos are awesome. I've learned a lot and will make one using a M-3 medic bag......

Cool glad you found them helpful.

The kit I'll be putting together will be stowed in my XJ. On the heels of the wickedest winter in recent memory (-31 was the lowest temp I recorded), how does one keep the liquid contents from freezing?

Tough call, park it in a garage, or take the kit inside when you're at home. Best I got. Remember different liquids will have different freezing points as well.

If you are referring to water, maybe instead of keeping water keep a way to thaw snow and or ice to get water? Just an idea, not sure if it will work tho as i have not had to deal with a freeze in a LONG time. Dealing with internal car temps close to 180 or more is more my issue. :icon_lol:
