Propane Tank Bracket

[Brentbba]

Someone had posted a link to a forklift place with a tank bracket like this one.

TB-3<br> TANK BRACKET KIT

I ordered this one and just received it this weekend. Fits the tank great and the latch is adjustable to snug it down real well. Just need to get it welded to the tongue now. Got home late last night and just test fitted the tank. Didn't take a look to see if it could be bolted on, but I don't think so. The rear is wide enough that it actually extends out to each side of the tongue. PO had extended the tongue a little and strengthed it with a center tube as well, so it rests on that very solidly and welding it on shouldn't be difficult. Just need to find someone to do this simple 10 minute job!

Pics of the tank on the trailer to follow!

Brent,
Looking forward to see how you set this up.

Is it lockable?

Is it lockable?

No - not as delivered.

Here are the pics I promised. BTW - the little box and attachement are the break away system for the electric brakes I had installed. Couldn't be happier with that addition too!

Very nice and a slick way to hold down the bottle safely.

Glad to hear that new electric brakes are working, too. I'd like to see pics of that.

Not much to show. You see the breakaway battery back up and pin on the tongue. Other than that, wires running back to each hub and that's all. No pics of the brakes in the hub. It there's anything particular, I'll be happy to shoot a pic to you.

Cool, sounds like a nice clean install. Which axle/brakes did you use?

Don't know what he used, but I think Dexter.

OK, that's what I was considering when I get to that point.

You're the guinea pig

Well Mike, all I can say is go for it. Two runs under my belt with them and I couldn't be happier.
