    Perentie Jerry Cans

    Hey everyone, I bought some cheap steel jerry cans the other day and ran into a small problem.



    They don't fit!

    I would have thought they would be a generic size and shape, but not these ones! I think these particular ones may be too cheap and have a rib around the middle of the can where the two halves are pressed together, this prevents it from slotting in.

    Could someone please give me the correct dimensions for the genuine Jerry Cans?

    I know, I know, I can just measure the brackets. But I would rather know the actual size of the cans.


    Thanks!

    I have seen those ones before, what did yours cost you?

    Mine were $40NZD, should have seen it coming really. They measure W165 X L350 (not including the rib) X H465

    Also what colour did you get and how well does it go with the camo? Wouldn't mind a picture if you could spare a minute...

    About A$60 from Supercheap Auto.

    They sit next to the cheaper ones, you can tell the quality difference.

    I have 1 x olive diesel. Looks good with the Auscam.

    Will post photo later today.

    Hmmm my $40 Aldi red jerry fits nicely on my 110, and provides some much needed visibility in the bush!
    Anaconda and other camping stores sell Bush Tracks brand water jerry cans, the 22l 'army style' fits my 110.

    Could be an idea, I'm sure a lot of Perentie owners would like to fill those racks on there trucks.

    I wonder if shipping will be a lot because of the bulkyness?

    Hm, who is Australia's main shipping company?

    As requested, The Proquip in Olive on the back of my FFR.


    Edit: In hindsight, should have covered my reg. plate with my ARN plate. Censored plate looks weird. But just lost the light.
