Extended Spare Tire Carrier w/ Jerry Can Support
So I've been tinkering around with this idea for my Jimmy, wanted to get some outside input. Keep in mind I'm no master editor, and I'm a lot better at visualizing than I am graphic design, but here goes.
I've liked the idea of mounting a Jerry Can on the rear of my Jimmy. It just seems like it would blend pretty well. I did some thinking, a little drawing around and came up with this. Basically, I cut both the top and bottom tube, along with the handle rod and extend them both out to a certain measurement. Then, I weld the extension tubing onto it to basically rebuild the carrier. After that, I weld a plate onto the front of it between the tire and handle, and mount the Jerry Can onto it.
What do you guys think?

Agreed with above! But I can tell you that you will be blocking out the tail light. I have some "tabs" welded to my bar so I can mount a jerry can on the passenger side of the bar. Works great but you can't see the tail light.
I only carry the can offroad or when towing my camping trailer. Haven't had any problems with LEO's.
