Side mount jerry can mount for Discovery 2?
I really like the concept of this mount. It is for a Defender. It seems like something similar could be done for the Discovery. An aluminum horizontal bottom attachment rail could be riveted to the body. Would present an issue on the right side for filling the tank but would not be that big of a deal. I would like to carry extra gas but would like the weight lower than the roof rack.

You are correct. I am almost 100% certain I will go with a rear mount option instead. I'm just exploring the idea. A rear mount will keep them even lower than a side mount. I deeply dislike rooftop mount options as they add so much weight up top and are much more likely to get in the way. I want to add several cans, however, combination of fuel and water. Do you know where I would find data as to how much weight the door hinges can safely handle? The spare will be going up top. Thanks.
