Parts Needed To Transition To A Two Propane Tank Setup On A Trailer
Question:
I have a setup for 1 propane tank on my trailer. Do you have the components to convert to a 2 tank setup?

We sure do!
Starting with the base we have a mounting tray # 37230BL that you can attach to the tongue of your trailer to secure two 30lb tanks. Next you'll need a regulator like part # 888001-MBS, which also comes with a mounting bracket that you can attach to the post of the # 37230BL. To connect your tanks to your regulator you can use two pigtail hoses like # 100575-12-MBS.
For the supply line from the regulator to the hardline system on your trailer you'll need to use a hose with a 3/8" Male NPT fitting on one end and need to determine what type of fitting is at your trailer's connection point. Typically the trailer side will require a 3/8" female flare fitting, if this is the case for you then you could use a hose like part # 100040-48-MBS.
