This is very very difficult to do and even alaskan bush cabin maker tier pilots have to restock lubes and ammo shells. There is no total withdrawal only the absolute minimum contact. Unless you go full anthropological and hope for no modern need of medicine. A tough call to be sure. So what I would suggest is look up skills books and star narrowing your specific focus for things you need. All the best books about dropping out are often fugitive related, about being far from minimal contact or involve barely touched places that often reduce life to the harshest of conditions. Everyone jacks off mongolians but they're some of the poorest sickest people in asia thanks to china fucking them up now. It's sad.
