Customized my Tire Carrier for Fuel, Water, and Storage
I ordered 2x 2 gallon fuel tanks, 1x 2 gallon water tank, and 1x storage tank from roto-pax.
I had this idea from the time I saw them, really love the products. Kinda pricy, but well worth the effort.
So I customized my Rugged Ridge tire carrier by welding on some additional brackets in order to hold the tanks the way I want them. The nice thing about this setup is they come off with the twist of a handle. And the tanks do not stick out past the tire itself in any direction so they are always protected.
Now when I am on the trail, I will always have some water and fuel

If you Google "roto-pax" you will find them.
Being a 2 door I do not hold as much fuel at the 4 doors. Been a couple trips to Fordyce and Rubicon after 2 days of wheeling that I hoped I could make it to the gas station. This just simply guarentees that I will ever time.

Any chance you could email me these pics? I can't view them, site is blocked, but email would work.
