Didn't even think about that! I definitely wanted a setup where I could take off the Rotopax and things still look like they belong - like that's how the tire carrier came.
+1 I used the plate and KC clamps on the upper angled bars as well but I don't really like the look of the clamp placement. Not sure why I did not think of the horizontal cross bar. Eddie's way looks much cleaner. :thumb:

Would this work with 2, 2 gallon RotoPAX tanks sitting vertical rather than the horizontal 4gal? I think it would look a little better and be easier to manage. Looks like I would just rotate the RotoPAX mounts 90 degrees on the universal plate.
I like the idea of this design. I have the DV8 carrier and have been wanting a cheaper way to mount the rotopax cans than what I’ve seen available. I like my LP being in the center but I’m sure I could mount the bracket for the cans above the plate and still look good. Thanks for the idea on where to start. Keep Jeepin
Nice write up. I like the look of the bumperless jeep but aren't you worried or have you ever taken a shot to the rear panels without bumper protection?
