If you have a friend in AZ . . . Are you talking about the metal caps? I had the CA Legal plastic cap on my Jerry Can and it leaked all over the place too. It was really annoying and smelly. I was able to order the Metal Jerry Can Lid from this website, and they shipped it to CA. http://www.offroadrecovery.com/c=GOtw09JJB2FtLsWULvQM6myVW/category/blitzjerrycansandacc/ Hope this helps. If there is something else better than the metal lid, let me know too....Cause I haven't tried it out yet, but anything was better than that plastic lid that was leaking like crazy.... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2462507 Re: jerry-can [Re: Isuzukid] #775549 12/29/06 06:28 AM Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,437 Anaheim, CA, USA lttlbddy Body Damage is Cool I was actually talking about the old fashion Jerry cans . . . all metal cans.

I am looking at buying a jerry can and that looks like a solid brand. Unless it would be better to get a metal can. I am just wondering what kind of experience you guys have had with different brands of Jerry Cans? 86 Trooper II Stock except for the Rust and dents that came with it.

I have a used Scepter jerry can that a local wheeler gave to me. Looks like it has seen some abuse, <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> but it also looks very durable. The plastic wall is THICK. The seal is great. I have had it in the house and have not smelled any gasoline molecules. I've found other gas cans really fail here. BTW, I was going to purchase a new Scepter before this free one came along. I will probably buy another Scepter jerry can in the next three months. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Isuzu Trooper, '91, 2.8L, 3" PA BL, coil sprung SAS, OX locker front, Detroit back, 5.38 gears...
