Mounted mine in front of passenger seat using Bracketeer. Reason: I want the fire extinguisher always immediately available to me, the driver, even while still in the driver's seat. Tight fit for the 2.5 lb, but it does fit.Where are you mounting your fire extinguishers? I was thinking I could mount a 2 1/2 lbs. on the roll bar between the bar and cab. Boy was I wrong, no room at all. Really thought there was more room there. Kind of looking at the front of the storage box on the outside right above the tunnel hump.
Whats your thoughts or locations?

I have one of these in the netting in my driver door.
Is this placement out of the way of your legs or the underside of your thigh?Mounted mine in front of passenger seat using Bracketeer.

I like that, it tucks out of the way but still accessible. I'm sold on this for me.I rarely go full topless so I went for rear driver side roll bar. At a glance it looks weird to get out but I just have to tug on the Velcro straps and it comes out holder and all. I like that it just blends in back there.

Organized trails require a fire extinguisher on your truck, and it's always a good idea to have one even if it's not required.Do they catch on fire that much ?
Yes, your knees will be projecting well past the extinguisher.Is this placement out of the way of your legs or the underside of your thigh?
I have seen too many cars fires to not have one with me. Only four, but four too many.Organized trails require a fire extinguisher on your truck, and it's always a good idea to have one even if it's not required.
Ok I was thinking maybe it was because of going on trials where the brush, etc could be dry. Those stick versions look interesting and don't take up much space but costlyOrganized trails require a fire extinguisher on your truck, and it's always a good idea to have one even if it's not required.
Exactly.One of the nice things about getting some sort of fire suppression device in your vehicle is that if it’s also your everyday vehicle you then have the superpower of “guy that always has fire extinguisher XX’ away”.
Mother in law sets Turkey on fire in oven? Lawnmower backfires into pile of leaves? Kids doing fireworks wrong again? Got drunk and used too much gasoline to start the campfire? Bam, quick solution is only as far away as your Jeep is, crisis averted, purchase justified.
I like that. Might look into mounting one here and also get one of the stick models to keep in the net pocket on my drivers door for quickest and then this as a backup if neededWell, this is what I ended up with and doing. Fits good and seems sturdy. I now it is not as easily accessible as one would like but it is quick and easy to get to.
They are costly, but I always think that there is no price for someone's life.Ok I was thinking maybe it was because of going on trials where the brush, etc could be dry. Those stick versions look interesting and don't take up much space but costly
