Gas/Water Can Mounting
So I've been searching around and can't seem to find a thread with the information I'm seeking.
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for a way to mount, while using the OEM spare tire carrier, the plastic RotopaX interlocking containers, as shown in the picture below?
I am running the XHD rear bumper and stock spare tire carrier, as mentioned above.
If anyone has any idea, pictures, or tutorials of rear mounted gas/water jerry cans, preferably the RotopaX kind, I would be in your debt.
Thanks!

I did see that and am not totally opposed to it. However, I would rather not cover up the spare tire if I can find another way.
My only real objection to that one is simply, and truthfully, purely aesthetics.

No worries or apologies necessary! I simply commented cause I got a kick out of seeing my jk on a random thread. Thanks for the compliment! Good luck with the rotopax mounting search.

[QUOTE=Trail Duty;3371862]How about the system made by Rock Slide that mount rotopax to the side of your spare tire?
Looks nice, but can you still see the tail lights alright?
I mounted my 5ga onto the spare tire.
