Smittybilt JERRY GAS CAN HOLDER - SB2798

Heavy duty and secure Jerry can storage.

Not the best looking welds but welded a lot better than the rest. Made from decent gauge material. The strap seems to attach well and doesn't look like it will stretch lose. My only thing is I wish there was a little bit of padding on the strap where it makes contact with the handle of the Jerry. I can fix that though. Fairly happy with the product even with it being *used*. If you're on the fence about saving a couple bucks and buying it *used*, do it!

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

To contribute to the warming of the planet, I needed to tote more hydrocarbons into the outback to feed my Jeep, so I fabricated a mount for the posterior of the vehicle. This holder attached easily and seems to be constructed with enough steel that it will persevere well; time will tell.However, the size of the actual receptacle seems a bit wobbly. When I installed a five-gallon plastic jerry can of water into the bracket for testing purposes, the can fit perfectly, although the hinged top strap bracket didn't fit. Luckily, the top strap metal is thin enough that I could bend it a bit to hold onto the water jug better.When I installed the actual steel jerry can of gas, however, the top strap needed adjusting again. The can didn't fit the bottom part as snugly, although I suppose it being a bit too large is better than it being too small. I am worried the filled gas can will shift about and perhaps rattle, so I wedged a couple of lengths of old rubber heater hose between the can and the vertical brackets to shim it all up.All in all, I think it's a pretty good product for the price. If there are any problems down the road (literally), I will update my review.

I have two of these in my truck bed for jerry cans ... they are sturdy and I like the fact they can be used for both 5 and 2.5 jerry cans!Nice product, arrived fast and I will recommend these to anyone looking for a jerry can storage option.

Nice sturdy rack, easy to install and nice to have a lock on it. The plastic container won’t fit, have to use a metal one.

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.

Dear Amazon, i purchased this can holder as a suggestion to my purchase of a green 5 gallon water container. Please stop recommending it with that product, it does not fit.The Jerry Gas Can Holder works great with the right can, but not with the green Scepter 5 gallon water container. I will purchase the correct gas can for this, but i wish i could lock down my water container.Oh well, we cant win them all.
