I see a lot strapped to the ladder. I've seen some strapped on edge behind the truck cab.

thanks for the input Lyle but due to drop down ramp I don't have a ladder or square bumper. not sure I would want to carry tank on either of those. Not very appealing to the people driving behind me if they recognized what the tank is for (gray water only!?). truck is pretty much full. I think I will build a drop down rack under the trailer, good project for this winter!

Something that would slide out and allow you to drop one end on the ground. With ends on it, you wouldn't need more than a bungie cord, or two, just to keep it from bouncing around. Lyle |

Lyle Did you ever build this? I keep mine strapped to my ladder but like the idea of storing it underneath. |

Might look at storing on the tongue above the propane tank in a rack, you'd have to build it. Under I would be concerned with clearance, you would have to stay above the axles, might be room under the rear.
