What size Surecan fits in the back with seats up position?

ie... between the rear folded seat backs and with the tailgate up.

No add'l storage, currently on Big Blue, but wanna make sure to carry a extra fuel for the long hauls. Space is limited.

Thanks.

Both Roto-pax and Surecan have their places. Surecan is excellent to keep around the house and carry when you need to. They are super tough. But the RP are the only choice for mounting to the vehicle. I've got the 2 gallon and 3 gallon versions but I recently saw the one gallon model and they look very handy. I could get several of those and store them more easily.

So the roto-pax is $70 and the mount is another $70?
Am I reading that right?

I have 3(5gallon) and 1(2.2gallin for 2stroke mix) sure cans, I replaced all my others. They work really WELL.

Rotopax is great for trail use.

Tractor supply carries the 5gallon for $44

They are high but they are good quality. Check out all the options they have. Water, fuel, med kit, tool kit, etc.

Toolkit is NOT water-resistant FYI, had a lot of rusty Polaris repair tools. When I cleaned it out to sell it with my 700.

Sounds like you need to build or buy some sort of storage either off the rear rops like Moses makes and sells. Looks like top notch work. Or build something with the tail gate folded down. Or storage to slide into the rear hitch like Cumminspusher. Here is what i made to sit on top of the tail gate with it in the down position

Nice!
I thought about modifying a bumper cargo hauler to expand the surface plain when the tailgate is down.

If that makes sense.
