Smittybilt JERRY GAS CAN HOLDER - SB2798

Heavy duty and secure Jerry can storage.

With a little bit of bending of the frame with a reverse bar type gripper and some moderate pounding with a hard plastic car body hammer, I managed to get my Jerry Can to fit from side to side in the frame. After fitting to my gas can I went over the holder with high quality rust protecting black semigloss spray paint to make sure no amount of rain will make it rusty. After letting the holder dry thoroughly I mounted it to the adjustable mounting system of my Nissan trucks cargo bed.A large padlock on the over head strap and a small lock on the cans leverage sealing cap my camouflaged Jerry Can is good to go anywhere.I did fit the rubber mounting pads in their proper places for protecting the can with strong contact glue to keep them from coming off while driving at freeway speeds or removing the can. Otherwise they will easily come off the holders frame..All in all a very adaptable and sturdy gas can mounting system.Highly Recommended with a full five star rating!Frank in California

There are times when you hesitate to buy online because things look different in person. This was better than expected! Very pleased with the paint job, Heavy Duty, " Jerry" gas can fits perfect. The seller even contacted me before shipping to make sure I understood measurements. Cheaper than others to.

It’s okay, some rust already forming after only a month but I plan to repaint it. Seems about the same as all the other Chinese mounts sold on here. Seems solid for what it is

.......along comes this awesome Smittybilt Jerry Can Holder! This thing is well built and the powdercoat is really nice. Please don't believe it will "float" at the back of your tire, there's a separate adapter available for that mounting (search "Smittybilt 2740 I-Rack", or "Intelligent Rack", here on Amazon or check "The Bay"). This Jerry Can Holder has mounting holes on both long sides and it should be pretty easy to fabricate some form of suitable mount for it. As mentioned in other reviews, there are a bunch of rubber isolaters to keep your metal can off of the metal frame, they're not really secure---you'll want to get some self stick insulation to replace this, but it's no issue, really. You can leave the isolators in place if you never plan on removing the can from the holder (parade queen, like my buddies Jeep!); otherwise they'll pop out when you pull the can.Overall, I'm really impressed at the quality and appearance of this thing for the money!

These units have poor quality welds but they do the basic job if you install them in a truck bed (i dont need to bungee cord / ratchet strap them in). The hold down brackets on both units I bought broke at the hinge tack welds on the first drive (7 miles). These may be cheaper than fabricating myself but I will probably be welding up my own jerry can holder if I need another one and using better (thicker) materials. The second unit did not come with the rubber rub guards meaning the holder will wear the paint off my nato cans if I continue to drive with them. Having said that, there are a variety of mounting holes on the frames which is nice. I will likely reweld / redesign the hold down strap and they will work fine.

I was looking for an inexpensive, but well made Jerry can bracket, and I finally found one. The bracket is made from welded angular steel and includes a metal strap to go over the Jerry can. I mounted the Jerry can bracket on the back door of my van which I go camping with. I used a Jerry can other than their recommended one and so the metal strap would not fit, but I had an old bicycle cable and lock that is perfect for it.Even though I didn't use the metal strap, I would not hesitate to recommend this Jerry can bracket to anyone needing to carry extra fuel. My only caution is that if you plan to use a Scepter Jerry can with it, you will have to modify the bracket, but if you do so you will have the best bracket you can buy.
