Provides emergency traction for your tires in snow, ice, mud and sand. Works on all vehicles with summer, winter, or all-season tires.Comes with 2 reusable polypropylene solid and virtually indestructible traction mats.No installation required, making it hassle free, easier and safer to use than tire chains and snow chains.Each only 2.5 pounds and 36 inches long, allowing easy storage in your trunk or under your seat.Avoid the stress of shoveling, slipping and sliding, being stranded, or calling for a tow truck in emergency situations.
JUMPER CABLES. Seriously. I have used them SO many times (mostly for other people's cars).
At the moment, my current car kit is: spare tire, jack, tire iron, tow hook (all of which came with the car), jumper cables, yoga mat (you never know when or where you might need to lie down and look under your car), electronics charger, and a couple of bottles of water.
I'm about to move to a colder climate, so I'll be adding an ice scraper/snow brush, folding show shovel, safety/first aid kit, warm gloves, a blanket, some nonperishable food, and portable tow trucks. I may be a bit of an over-preparer.
2 feet might be a bit deep for a stock JK. Once the snow is deeper than your axle tubes, you run the risk of getting high centered. Without lockers, you can be spinning if one front and one rear wheel is without traction. A limited slip will help you here, but it is not a locker. As you mentioned, lower air pressure is your friend, as are the general get unstuck stuff: Shovel, snow ladders, floormats in a pinch, etc.
