Good starting kit, but a few extras would help.
1) Bushranger 9000KG revcovery kit
* Snatch Strap
* 2 * 11 ton shackels (D type) 11 ton? Way too big! Your snatch strap will break at about 9-10 ton, those shackles won't fail until you get to about 60 ton or more! Get some 3.75T or 4.5T shackles which are much lighter and easier to handle.
* gloves
* heavy "trow over" to help stop damage if the snatch brakes
2) Army style 3 fold shovel If you can fit in a long handled shovel they are much easier to use. I've seen one which has the handle in two pieces for easier storage and plan to get one myself.
3) small hatched (Tommy hawke)
4) Stanley small piece set, Torx, Phillips, Flathead and both metric and imperial sockets Tool kits aren't normally considered as recovery gear - if you want to know what to put in a toolkit, that's another thread all by itself!
5) Tyre deflator and air compressor - you'll be surprised how many situations you can just drive out of if you have the right (lowered) tyre pressures.
6) Maxtrax - fairly expensive but worth putting on your wish list.
7) Winch and winch accessories - now you're getting into the big league!
