sorry to hijack....any close ups of that gas can mount?

good luck, he no longer owns that SWB any more

I think I have one like it sitting on the shelf in the garage, Kris. I'll see if I can get a pic up this weekend.

EDIT: Here's a shot of what I think is the same gas can mount on my old White Monty.

Thank You. not quite what i thought i was going to see. but still cool. by the way my name is Ben.

Ok, Ben.

That holder is a clamp of sorts. The little round "eye" on top is a screw that tightens the top plate onto the lip of the gas can as it turns. On the back of the aluminum piece was a piece of U-channel that I thought was cheesy, so I ground it off and welded a piece of one sized pipe to the plate that bolts to the tire mount and a larger size pipe to the plate that mounts to the "clamp" assembly. I then slipped the small pipe into the larger pipe and drilled a hole all the way through so a pin can be put in to make a quick release for the clamp. That made mounting the spare easier and I'm able to put other "attachments" on there with the right size of pipe.

Anyway, more info than you asked for, but there it is...

That is Fantastic! Now i have a idea and i will get on it Sunday. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Is that a land rover discovery ladder on the back of your white Montero? I saw one the other day and was wondering if it would fit a gen I and it looks like it does. Great! Did you have to modify it to fit at all?

thanks,

yes it is, do a search for ladders there was some talk a couple weeks ago <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

The Disco ladder can be readily made to fit.

I'm glad you know what was on my truck because I can't confirm what it was supposed to be for. It was on there when I bought it.
