How about glueing rubber mat to one side of the can? That would help with slippage also. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yes indeed, brilliant minds think alike.

Home Depot and Lowes both carry thick rubber floor mats with drain holes in them. They're 3x3 and you can cut them into 1x1 squares. Attach to rack with plastic wire ties and you have a cushioned ride for anything metal. A ratchet strap holds the cans down.

That all now said, I also bought another, non-traditional fuel container. It's going to take some modifying to make it work but if it does, it'll be schweeet.

I have four plastic cans to keep gas in around the house. No stinkin' way would I carry those on my truck. Some plastic ones are good but mine ain't those. El Cheapos from HD.

Good show on the permit. How much of your money did they charge for the pleasure of driving on our land?
