Default Teraflex hinge tire carrier DIY jerry can rack

I spent the last few days working on a jerry can rack that would bolt to my Teraflex tire carrier. It also holds my CB antenna, third brake light and rear flood lights. I think it's strong enough but if not please let me know.

Looks good. What all did you use to make it?

It was made from steel I had lying around. The top rail is 1 inch box tubing and the supporting bars are 1.5 angle iron. I used the smittybilt can basket to hold the jerry can.

It moves a little when I slam the gate but not much at all if any when I'm driving.
