My Can Carrier
Bolt on hitches for these JK's are very affordable & don't hurt your angle of departure much. Also, when I'm packin cans I'm usually doing more trail rides that don't require sliding off of rocks.
As far as the diesel smell in your surplus cans. Frankly, I don't care for the smell of unleaded either. Just fill er up, put the cap on & quit smelling it.

I think it mounts in the hitch receiver. Could be wrong though. I'm curious about how the tailgate opens too. I have a hitch mounted rack but my tire hits it when I try to open the tailgate, so I have to completely remove it to get into the back of the jeep. Sort of a hassle, but it has been handy to have.
