Nismodrift Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) Hey guys I was always wondering if anyone ever mounted or could mount a jerry can to the stock carrier without custom fabrication, I know it sounds a bit unprofessional but can It be securely attached? We have these things stock so why not push it to the limit lol, Edited December 27, 2015 by Nismodrift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precise1 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Absolutely. While there are a few different types of mounts, the best ones are locking, obviously. You can attach it with U-bolts for lack of anything better, just secure it well and then saw off the excess, but leave about 1/4" or so to fold over by beating it with a hammer. Nothing but cutting it off will do the trick, and if they can do that, they will just cut the lock. While mounting on the hinge side is a better idea for leverage/weight, the carrier won't have any issue supporting the weight. I've seen pictures of people with a 35" tire, jerry cans, a high-lift jack and who know what else. The carriers are 'over engineered/built" and won't have a problem with a little more weight. Try searching, I know people have posted threads on their mounts, or look through the Members Rides section and as questions/PM them. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
