Default Water Tanks Wanted

Guys, I'm looking for a couple of Canadian Forces black plastic 5-gal water cans for my jeep. They must be good enough to carry potable water, not just for show.

Also, I need a fuel spout to fit the gas can in the first two pics attached. Please advise if you have one or if you know where I can find one. Oh yeah, and where in southern Ontario can I find a pintle hook attachment to fit the socket in the third pic? Ultimately I want to buy a jeep trailer to match the jeep and ease transport space. Any leads on the trailer bit? It must be ready-to-go because I haven't any place to work on it....

Thanks,

Jif

Here ya go, Boobie. There are a few things I have yet to do to it (water cans, trailer and some other stuff), but it's set up "right" - 2" suspension lift, revised shocks, 32-11.50x15" tyres on custom rims and that wonderful Warn X8000i winch on the front, mounted on a custom frame which also supports the jerry can holders on each side. Gas mileage sucks, but I don't care! We just drove it to and from Windsor, and it travels wonderfully.

BTW, it started out life as a stock 2003 TJ Sahara... bit of an improvement, heh?

Dunno what I'm going to call it (that "COMMANDO" has to go!) but if you're not careful I might name it after you...

Jif

PS: Thanks for the link, Paul! That's what I'm looking for, for pulling people out of the ditch as well as a trailer.
