Remember that stuff weighs a good amount and fuel or water sloshes around. I could see adding a shovel, pick ax, and high lift but I wouldn't go adding jerry can holders personally.
Also you've got a fairly good sized storage space where your tire used to be. You could rig something up to use that space too.

Thanks for the input. Honestly not sure how much weight the swingout could handle. I can tell you it seems very solid in person. The bolt is a double sheer with 1" tapered roller bearing. The original owner told me his intent was to add the jerry cans. That is a good tip though about the unused space below where the tire would be. Not sure how safe it is to put gas cans below though (Not that they are real safe hanging out on the rear of the 4R).
