JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

These pictures are from an Expedition One thread on this forum:
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/spon...request-26075/
Expedition One decided not to make these in the end.. Their reason was that their version of the Rotopax gas can could not get EPA approval.
I asked them to share more of the design with me, but they declined. So I will have to make the gas can carrier myself.
I also plan to make a telescoping post for a camp light that sits on the swingout tire carrier. Similar to this concept:

This may be a stupid question but how does someone get the fuel out of this:

Into the tank... Do you need to remove the whole spare tire or is there a hose or something?

That looks good nice and slim design. A lot thinner then putting a Jerry can on the back.

i have the AEV tire carrier and fuel caddy, as others have said there is a siphone hose that goes into the tank and pumps out the fuel. Ive had the bumper for about a year now and havent had any issues yet, its been a great bumper setup.

x2 on both AEV. Very convenient way to carry both fuel (caddy shown above) and water (integrated in rear bumper). Made good use of both on week long hunting trips in the mountains of Colorado.

By the way, these use a shaker siphon. Much better than silly straws. ;-)
