A couple of thoughts. I have seen this strap used with the Rotopax mounted at 10 and 2 o'clock or a little higher. It clears the tailgate handle and the tail light. Put the ratchet at the top of the tire and use a velcro wrap to attach the excess strap to the ratchet. A nice product from RSE.

Loved the thorough review! Gonna wheel my new JL next weekend and gonna grab the mount for water and fuel.

Thanks so much for this man! I may do this on my jeep. Got a new roof rack and it's interfering with my current setup.

A friend of mine had a pair of 2 gallon Rotopaxs on while we were in Moab for the Easter Jeep Safari. He had them spaced on the upper half of the spare as was mentioned by rsbmg. Worked great. He also has a Master lock similar to an old bicycle lock to secure the ratcheting strap to prevent theft. Nice set up and very solid. You could also cut and melt the strap to the length needed (the down side is if you need more strap in the future you could come up short).

Very helpful video. Exactly what was looking for

Awesome. Thank you for show us this video

That is something I might do. Thanks for showing this.

Great Video! This is exactly what I been looking for! Thank you

Great video!

Love it, getting one. Thanks.

Very helpful. Thanks for sharing!

Well done.

Good job

This is a great idea.

Nice I just ordered a set😊

Nice setup looking to do the same but I'm hoping that I could mount the traction boards on one side and the rotopax on the other

Thanks man. I got confused setting it up:/ Got it now.

Awesome thanks!! How did you attach your max traxx boards?

You can mount it a little bit on the top side of the tire to have access to the handle.

Thanks for the video

Well explained cool 😎

Awesome vid!!! Gonna order it but is there any way to lock in the canisters? Just in case someone has sticky fingers?

Are there any concerns about the added weight on the tailgate that carrying either one or two rotopax filled with gasoline, might add? As mine currently sits, I have a 37" tire and I am using a reinforcement kit (more like a weigh distribution kit) designed to distribute the extra weight of a larger tire, more evenly across the tailgate. I've read somewhere that the max weight that the JL tailgate can handle, stock, is around 105lbs and I think I'm right around that weight with my current spare wheel and tire setup. I just ordered this kit from Rockslide Engineering and am hoping I don't have to do any further modifications but sounds like I might, or else, I risk damaging my factory tailgate and hinges. Thoughts?

Just curious but couldn't you reverse the mount so that the excess strap is above the tire? Its really no biggie I guess, you could always make/pickup a velcro strap and roll up the excess strap that way.

Nice video, but what stop someone from removing the pax from the tire ? Yes the rotopax locks on but seems you can just remove the strap going around the tire.

👍🏻 nice !!! How did curiosity how did your mouth the max traxx?

Thanks for the video man. So with those gas cans full, how many more miles do you get if you need to use both of them at the same time? I hope that makes sense.

What do you do with a flat tire and you need to use your spare? Will this hold on a flat as well?

Excellent thanks for sharing

Good video. How did you mount your traction boards? I have everything on the roof now and access isn’t easy.

Nice stuff where I can buy the strap link not working let me know thank you!

Nice! Did you use the trasharoo straps to keep the maxxtrax mounted?

so how do you mount your traction boards there?

... and when you get a flat and need to use your spare, where go the rotopax and strap?

Do you think a 3Gal roto paz would fit?

Can a 4.5 gallon Rotopax work with the straps and a rear Garvin wilderness basket work?

So I am curious about the maxtrax mount... info?

Great idea, but what if you get a flat, you change it out, and your spare tire is flat. Will it tighten up enough to hold the weight? I need to figure something out carry more fuel but not sure if this is the answer.

Good Video. Can you do one on how you mount your MaxTrax?

I like your tires, how many inches are they?

I made it ( 3 pieces ) and, it cost 33 riyals. It equals 11 $ . With laser cut. 👌🏻🔥

great video. would a 3 gallon rotopax gas fit on the passenger side?

Do you know if they're ever going to make a mount for the jl to have a rack up ontop of the tire and Jerry can mounts??

I would have liked to see the pax mounted at the 10 and 2 'oclock position.

What size tires do you have?

Awesome! Where did you get the camera in the center of the tire? Is that factory?

Can you mount a high jack to that?

Can you put the ratchet on top?

Do you have any issues not using the rotopax circular mount piece? I see you went directly on to the mount, i assume with a washer. Trying to set up the same system.

Any way this can loosen up and fall off??? Looks good and priced okay.

I like your set up but could not find it on Amazon, only the cans and clips. I will get one if I can find one.

Will it fit on a 2002 jeep liberty?

Does the mount come with hardware screws n bolts to mount it on the EZ RACK ?

In cold weather the air pressure in the tire decreases. Could that result in gas cans coming loose as the strap becomes less tight?

does ur window closes/open with gas can on? mine hits a bit i have to move can forward

What happened to these?

Your link to their product is broken.

How did you mount the maxtrax?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

What's the orange thing on the back

Will this work on a 2005 Wrangler TJ?

How well does it do on a flat tire?

I guess this could fit on a JK as well no?

This type of ratchet just feed a bit so it can turn and ratchet all will roll and you will not have anything left.

Why not just use a regular ratchet strap and find a mounting plate for much cheaper ?

Buen video, Quiza puedas agregar y fijar una placa de metal tambien a los hoyos de la placa original y la instalas hacia afuera para que quepa el otro galon de gasolina en el lado izquierdo..

can you lock those for security??? looks like they can be easily stolen while youre in line for a mc donalds cheesburger!

So that's the only way to mount them with a strap on the tire ? If so I don't like it

Someone could steal that quick fast and in a hurry. That's the bad part.

Rotate your Rotopax higher on the tire and they won’t interfere with the handle opening up your Jeep.

Do not like the way they melt with that strap around the spare I'm not going to do that

Looks like they are no longer made by this company.

Cool, but obviously you never used a ratchet strap before, all timid and scared 😱 😂😂

Could you mount 2 Two Gallon rotopax on one side? Is that just a different length mount or something?
