    Looking for a rear bumper tire and jerry can carrier for a 2nd gen Taco. Any suggestions?
    Sorry if there's already a thread on this, but typing my title in the search bar didn't work very well:rofl:.

    Thanks. If a whole new bumper is the only option, that's what i'll do, but i already have a bumper. It has a mount for a tire carrier:

    But it has no jerry can holders or anything else. Any way to mod that or get something that could bolt on?

    Hmm. Check your dimensions, but something like this with some spot welds might work.

    I’m thinking if there would be any way to custom fab a metal plate with mounting holes onto the carrier I linked, then mount cans to that.....

    Ideally I want to mount a couple of Rotopax gas cans

    Pretty sure the only limit there would be the skill of your fabricator. If you live in even a small city you probably have some custom metal work shops around.
