Ive seen this done on a Disco but it is a pain to open the rear door. You either have to foldi t down or remove it.

Bad idea IMHO. That's the first thing hit when you get rear ended. Having Pinto style explosions and a Car-B-Que'd H3 (along with the person that was dumb enough to rear end you) isn't the way to go. Plus, it screws with the departure angle.

That's why I like the can mounted higher up. And - you don't have to remove it to open the swing gate. Plus, I don't have a Hitch on my wife's H3 either, for a slightly better departure angle.
