Prepping for the Rebelle Rally: Dialing In The Rig

When it comes to the Rebelle Rally, preparation isn’t just important — it’s everything. Every mile, checkpoint, and dune demands a rig that’s reliable, dialed in, and ready for anything. Here’s how I’ve been getting my vehicle rally-ready, with a special focus on upgrading how I store and access my tools and parts.

Swapping Out Vehicle Parts

I’ve gone through the rig top to bottom, swapping out worn components and upgrading critical systems. From suspension refreshes to drivetrain reinforcements, the goal is simple: eliminate weak links before they show up on the course. Fresh fluids, new belts, and upgraded hardware are all on the list. Nothing gets overlooked.

Tools and Fluids — Locked Down and Ready

I can’t finish what I can’t fix. I have to carry the fluids and tools specific to my specialty parts — like my PSC steering system and the locking hubs on my axles. Having the right fluids and the exact tools to service these components is critical out on the course, so they’re packed and accounted for. That’s why I’m not just focused on parts — I’m making sure my tools, spares, and fluids are easy to reach and locked down tight. Enter the Milwaukee Packout system.

Why the Milwaukee Packout?

I’ve switched all of my storage over to the Packout system for one reason: efficiency. This setup keeps everything secure, organized, and instantly accessible. No more digging through random bins or worrying about spilled oil bottles on the trail. With Packout, every wrench, spare bolt, and quart of fluid has a home — and it stays put, even in rough terrain. I like the system so much that I even moved my first aid kit into a Packout box. Now, critical medical supplies are just as secure and easy to grab as the rest of my gear.

Secure + Accessible = Confidence

Having what I need, exactly where I need it, builds confidence out there. It saves time, prevents headaches, and lets me focus on the course ahead. That’s why this upgrade wasn’t optional — it was necessary.

I’m almost ready to roll. Stay tuned as I button up the final details and get set to take on the Rebelle Rally. See you out there! 🏁🌵
