How do you mount the regulator?
I know this is a stupid question, but when I bought the 58 AS Caravanner, the tanks and regulator were not there. I have new 30 gal. tanks with gauges and the new double regulator, pigtails, the base tray and support, but no thingy that attaches the regulator to the rod. Do any of you have a pic of what the set up looks like? I can't find a detail closeup of how the regulator attaches in the Gallery.

Thanks JIm

Mine is mounted on the tie down rod. A bent piece of aluminum with holes for the rod.

Here's some pics. I would try ODM or VTS, or you could build one out of steel if you're handy.

Thanks Mark, I see it now. This is a piece that did not come in the package. Jim

Sneak up from behind when it's not looking.

Didn't Regulator win the Preakness in 1993?
