I understand your concern. I called Lippert to verify that the 132 Ft-lb of torque and use of Locktite is still valid. They said that was the requirement and there were no alternative instructions. The assumption is that this is the method they used for installation and that by removing the foot pad you will run the risk of damaging the cylinder. If you need to remove it in the future the only way to release it after red Loctite is used would be by applying heat.
I also verifed the order... view full answer...
Yes you can, you'd just need to make sure that the 40 lb tank can use the same hoses and be connected to the same regulator your 30 lb tank connected to. view full answer...
