Does anyone know of a gas can mount that will mount up to a factory spare tire rack or bumper? I have seen a few that require a whole new system but nothing simple like described. I was thinking maybe a mount behind the spare that sticks out to one side so the can sits beside your spare. Anybody got anything like that? Pics and where to get it are a huge plus. Thanks.

 

Those are kewl. I wonder if it is possible to get all the fuel out of the container. Looks like it gets in its own way.

 

There are several threads on this subject. I'd suggest starting with this one:

Jerry Can Mounted on Spare Tire

 

That's cool but won't mount to the OEM bumper like the OP wants. There have been Jerrycan mounts for Jeeps for decades. You'll likely be able to bolt one to the top of your bumper but not be able to open the gate with the can mounted. It seems likely that someone herein with metal skills could make one that could go on the stock mount behind the tire and hold a can on each side.

They could probably make some good cash. I would certainly buy one.

 

As easily as the stock tire carrier is broken, I wouldn't mount Gerry cans on it.

 

I would guess that 95 percent of JK owners have their OEM spare tire carrier and have never (or never will) break it. Haven't seen it as a problem. Like everything else - if it becomes a problem fix it - otherwise it's fine.

 

I was speakin of those who have larger tires mounted on a stock carrier. Tons of them have broken. That's a problem I suppose you'll never have.

 

True. Because I know that the stock carrier is for stock tires. If I mount a larger/heavier tire/wheel combo - I'll not expect the stock carrier to hold and will replace it with the proper equipment. Thus the stock carrier is perfectly fine. No breakage peoblem - except for possible user error. But thanks for your continued negative commentary.

 

Glad I didn't disappoint.

 

Oh great. A pastor vs a redneck. This isn't going anywhere. . .
