Rafiki on Tour Spare Parts List
The Rafiki on Tour spare parts list contains most of the spare items we carry on our international overland trips. With this comprehensive list we are comfortable on the road and confident that we can fix most problems.
The list below is compiled after years of experience traveling internationally with our Defender. We carry the stuff below because we love overlanding, fix the car ourselves and do our own maintenance. The list is somewhat up-to-date for our African 2022 adventure!
Let’s first dive into the tools we carry and then get you the Spare Parts List for free.

Tools for the DIY mechanic
Below are some of the tools we carry. If you outsource all maintenance and repairs, a small toolkit will do just fine. We do everything ourselves, which is why we carry some extra tools.
We think it’s important to have basic knowledge of your vehicle. That way you are prepared and can fix minor issues when they arrise in the field. This could prove invaluable once you are in a remote area without cell service.

What’s on the list
The Rafiki on Tour Spare Parts list contains every item we carry on our international overland trips. We have divided it into Maintenance Parts and Spare Parts, and have made a distinction between essential non-essential items.
Our Land Rover Rafiki is a Land Rover Defender 110 from 2000. It has a 300tdi engine, but TD5 axles, chassis and body. The list is compiled for this. Some parts we deem necessary, others have just accumulated over the years. We do carry a bit too much stuff, but some of it we carry due to specific problems we’ve encountered in the past.
How does it work?
The list, which you can download in both PDF and Excel-format, is ready for you to use. If you want, you can print the PDF right away. The Excel-format is there for you if you want to take a closer look first, possibly adding or removing parts off the list, before you start packing. Thanks to the Excel-format you will be able to tweak the list to your needs! Finally a list that you will really use, instead of downloading a beautiful PDF just for reference sake. Let’s start packing and take off!
