GEN 2 Jerry Cans?

hkguns · Feb 21, 2017

I have two Jerry cans and am looking for a solution to store them in the bed without resorting to a full rack system. I want to keep them secure when full and not interfere with the Hard cover. I'd also rather not drill into the bed. I can't seem to find any solution.

Ideas?

You can check out what I did in the 800A+ build thread. I did drill to mount airline track but something could be bolted down under the bed bolts to serve the same purpose without drilling the bed. The box link brackets are modified to accept the cans. I have not tested it hard offroad yet but I have confidence that it will work just fine. Not my first rodeo.

That looks real nice and about the best solution I've seen yet. Thanks.

If 36 gallons can't get me where I need to go I don't need to be there.

Where I go, there is no such thing as too much fuel. On one of my last trips in my old truck we had to be very careful with fuel and that was 10 gal extra each and slightly better mileage. Couldn't even go on all the spurs we wanted. Made it to a gas station with less than 50 miles of range left! Expecting 8mpg with 26 gal isn't nearly far enough.

I was thinking about getting the Ford accessory bed divider to keep items such as fuel jugs in place.

23 gallons in your supercab!

My bad, read some where in the early info that the normal F150 SCAB had a 23 gal but the Raptor would have 26. All the official literature says 23 gal which makes a lot more sense with my fill ups and low fuel light. Ran it a lot closer to empty today than I thought. Put 21.5 gal in!
