I'm building a custom bumper and I want a mount for my 20L Nato fuel cell, they are roughly the same size as the blitz cans.

I want something that is lockable and secures the can more than one of those cheap blitz mounts with a strap.

I'm also planning to mount my license plate on the front of it.

Heavy duty and lockable....anyone have any suggestions?

No idea if this will fit your bumper design, but this might give you a few ideas.

Cool!

That is close to what I was thinking, buit if I mount it vertically (like I want to), it would hang out pretty far off teh bumper. I would like something that mounts the can vertically (Spout pointing up) and flush against the bumper.

Good lookin out though. I missed that one in my searches.

i found these a while back looking for something for my roof rack... still haven't gotten any, waiting to get the rack's floor welded in... but it looks like these will mount vertically... HTH

Awesome, taht one looks pretty good. I wonder how well it holds the can in place, looks like it might bounce around ina high speed situation. But I really like the design, pretty sweet. Thanks

i was curious about how tight it held as well but figured some well placed cut up bike tube would fix that... i was also considering some of the rubber matte stuff for tool boxes...

The bike tubing is a good idea. I am more concerned about up and down than back and forth. It seems that the strap would hold it well enough for back and forth.

That might be the one for me. I'm gonna keep looking, though.
