So I am working on my propane tank holder on the tongue- I am going to have one propane tank and my battery box. I will not be reusing the original propane tank holder- as it was for 2 tanks ( oval 'shelf' and T shaped tank holder). IMG_6826 by kathy, on Flickr IMG_6905 by kathy, on Flickr I am having a new rectangular 'shelf' made to fit my tank and battery box- as the original oval one doesn't work with the bigger battery. SO....how do I hold down the tank and battery? I am thinking I need to have my 'metal man' put some holes in the bottom of the shelf to accommodate some hold downs - but don't know what they should look like. Any one have photos to share of how you hold your tank and battery box down? Also- do I need to mount the regulator somewhere- or can it just hang? Thanks !!

The regulator can connect right to the tank:

I use J hooks to anchor the tank and bolt the battery box. The strap provides more security:
