(feeler) bolt on spare tire gas can carrier.

I'd like to see one with a jerry can on the passenger side and a hi-lift on the drivers side... That might provide enough clearance not to hit the tail light when the door is open...

To go along with your idea, I am only hitting the tail light due to a needed 1/4" more room so the gas can on the pass side and hi lift on the driver would easily work.

Been awhile since this has come up so here is my standard info for those currently discussing it.

I had this on both my 06 and now my 08.
My door is still attached and hinges are tight and closure is snug as always.
Oh, and I use it while offroad, often. So I don't think two cans is gonna be a problem if you brace it right.
Even with careful fuel calculations I have put in the extra fuel, several times for piece of mind when headed to the first chance to fill up near the end of a long trip in the middle of nowhere, in the dark, and in the rain.

Another thing to consider depending on you type of wheeling would be departure overhang. On this obstacle I bent the license plate coming down, so anything hanging out past that could be a problem in extreme cases.

As always, my concern would be having the cans down low in a rear end collision but then I have not tested mine for that either!
Here is one I saw many years ago that may give you some ideas.

I have had my gas can mount on for a while now and I have even gotten rear ended with no damage to the cans, but I also have a replacement bumper that sticks out further thank the stock bumper.

For you guys who carry gas cans on the rear gate or bumper...remember the Pinto. :whaa:
