The radios usually fitted to a wolf lanny in 2005 would have been fitted with, if ffr, clansman PRC 351, 352, 353, 320 and various ancill, However in 05 some british units were fitted with bowman systems. With the 351,352's they would have been fitted to the cage directly behind the driver and commander. The 353 was more boxy and would have deen fitted in a rack above the battery box. The wolf isnt usually fitted with a BV, as they leak and require special fitting. on the 2 wings, TUAAMS would have been fitted for the antennae bases.
As for gear, due to the size of a LWB landy, water boxes were kept in the back, with Daysacks and other equipment. In ops in the balkans in the winter, sleeping systems were kept in the back with snowchains. One specific thing however, is the towrope, which on a wolf is fitted to the central front towing hitch and is secured to the front of the bonnet. This is for ready use. Tools are usually fitted to the front and the spare wheel is fitted to the side as it is too heavy for the bonnet. In the back again would be seperate seats fitted near the door/tailfor the operator. weapons would be either secured in the rack in the front or held for ready use by the commander and operators.
I hope that this helps.
