Thanks for the video. We are replacing the existing tank in the 1990 Leisure Travel Van that is waaaay too rusty with the same tank in this video. It’s just 2" longer than our original tank. The access door looks like a good idea given the poor access now under our wide running boards. We were lucky to find our tank as I’ve been told that Manchester is backlogged a year or more. Thanks again.

He is as good at explaining what he is doing as a professional television host, like Bob Villa or Bobby Flay. I don't know if he has a youtube channel, but he might do very well filming and explaining his mods, because he has what looks like a natural talent for it.
Nice, that turned out great! Your propane systems have definitely got me thinking about how I can incorporate some of your ideas in my next build. Dirt Road Garage looks to be a great resource as well.
Funny we actually took the propane tank out of our Westy and replaced it with the refillable 1lb propane bottles. We only use the propane for the indoor stove so they last a while. Our old tank was leaking and we didn't want to spend the money on a new tank. With as much propane as you use a big tank like that is well worth it. nate
Have Manchester tanks on both my Vanagons. 30 years old and still operating with no worries. Media Blasted surface rust and powder coated after 6 years in costa rica now its sweet again. Going to install the larger option vanagon tank under my E350 4x4. A bit smaller with more clearance than the one they used here. Go Westy has on their Web site for sale.
That looks great! Really cool how high up you were able to get it mounted. That will be really nice not having to worry about it when you are off-roading.
I'm a HVAC Tech in the Portland area and I plan on building my 2000 GMC Yukon 4WD SLT. We had a major snow storm this weekend and thing was a beast. First thing , Eaton/Detroit LSD TruTrac front and rear. Thanks for shouting these guys out.
That was a great installation. Make sure you keep your gas line for your 20lbs tank in the van though. One problem my inlaws have with their RV propane tank like yours, is getting ot filled in remote locations. A lot of stores might not be open or have the equipment to refill a mounted unit. This has happened several times when they have traveled into the back country or very small campgrounds. CHEERS from Colorado
Cool idea! I would definitely want to add a box inside the rocker panel to seal out the holes that were cut in it to keep water, mud, mice and anything else for getting inside the walls of the van.
Hey I work for Manchester tank in action made that tank that your using on your Van on my line I hope you get a lot of your years worth out of it enjoy it!!
Think you went to right place to have the work done looks like great shop always wanted to open shop doin same stuff little more fab work welding on any thing but i love doing any costome and syspension work like thease guys
THAT TURNED OUT REALLY NICE . SOMETHING DIFFERENT . HOPE EVERYONE IS DOING GOOD ! LIKE TO SEE HOW EASY IT IS TO REFILL THE NEW TANK ? HOW'S THE WEATHER THERE ? BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! GOD BLESS YOU ALL ALWAYS ON YOUR JOURNEYS ! ENJOYED ! THANK YOU !
Everybody has their favourite but I'm a fan of Fluid Film for rustproofing and corrosion resistance. I'd grab a rattle can or two and start spraying everything under there, especially where they cut. Fluid Film creeps, so it will go around corners, etc. I'm in the same weather as you...northern Vancouver Island. Rust free (honest) on a 16 year old vehicle and 10 year old teardrop....I'm saying that is because of Fluid Film.
Great install! I thought we were gonna get an up close of those custom emblems....but it will be better after the paint! The van sure is coming together!!
To be honest I did mean to mention them there at the end and totally forgot, but you will get to see them when we get them installed after paint. Jason
Nice install. Have a couple propane suggestions. Since the valve was removed the tank should get purges by a qualified propane supplier and the MEC green regulator you used will work but it has a vent built in with a screen. Being installed under the tank could lead to mud and/ or water getting into the regulator. Messing up the function. They make regulators with no vent that should be looked into.
Here in The Netherlands (Europe) you can put a tank with LPG (licquid gas) to run the engine of the car. The prices of fuel are sky high here in Europe, so the LPG is like a 1/3 of the price, so pretty economical. Good luck with the VAN, I own a Dodge b350 4x4 from 1991. Best regards from The Netherlands 🇳🇱❤️🇺🇸✌️💪👌
Awesome 👌 your really selling van life for me 😆 id like to go diesel for engine & cabin heat, with a propane system like this for cooking. Seems like a simple & reliable system!
Nice looking install!!! I had a similar sized tank in my Class C and it would run a year with no problem between fills. That was with a hot water tank, furnace and stove top. Biggest drain on it was the furnace. The little bit of extra space will be nice... more junk to carry, or maybe that is just me that does that!
The furnace is the biggest use propane for me as well I could run for months on a tank like this if all I was doing was cooking, but I imagine based on my 20 lbs tank use I will need to refill every 7 days give or take in cold weather. Jason
I couldn’t agree more!! I don’t know where you are on the EAST coast, I’m in Delaware and the road salt is horrible!! Love the addiction to the van but salt here would kill it,
Only problem is some times might have troble filling tanks depending on area in the spot im at i know a few places close to home but for most of time we have blue rhino tank exchange give old tank and get new full tank but their are places who fill tanks still
I have never had a problem and filled up at multiple locations. RV tanks are pretty standard and reputable propane dealer should be able accommodate. Jason
Great channel, I have recently started watching from Australia. Will you have a gauge or an electronic read out on the dash for the gas level in the tank?
Awesome video as always! Any backup plan for really cold times since it's outside now? I cannot keep pressure in my gas grill below 10 degrees to cook, and it's been down to -20 for a week now here in ND.
As I mentioned in the video the tank is so far up out of the way, there is very little risk of hitting it, the fuel tank sits lower than the propane tank does. Jason
Hmmm, Now you can only get it filled at a RV place or truck stop. When swapping tanks out at anyplace including a Walmart or gas station could happen before. I considered 30 gallon tanks but those don't swap out easy either. I would love a dual undermount 20 gallon tank. Maybe where the old spare went. That way you swap them out. If they get corroded from road salt a bit you just swap them out anyway. Hmmm, makes me rethink using the spare tire area for another diesel tank. Or just put 2 20lb propane tanks up there. Run out, swap tanks. So if you stay up with it, you will never run out of gas. But with a single tank you still can. Not sure this is a better deal. I agree it's nice to get it out of the van. Just seems like filling will be more of a pain in the butt. I have RV tanks on other vehicles and getting someone to come out and fill the tank. Is an ordeal. Probably why I like Diesel. I can use the regular diesel tank for a Chinese heater. I can use it for a stove too. Just those are stupid expensive. So one 20gal mounted on the back door above a outside box that also holds a yamaha 2000 watt genset is better for me. Or a 20lb tank mounted up under the vehicle where the spare used to go.
Swapping tanks is way more expensive than having them filled at least in my area. We also don’t road salt like the east coast. I have had very little issue finding locations to fill a tank, propane is widely used so most of the rural towns have stations. Plus, now I can hold more propane than when I just had the 20 lbs bottle so I can go longer between fill ups. I am confident this will work out a lot better for me, but everyone needs to make their own decisions on how to setup their rigs. Jason
@@PrimalOutdoors Yea, here propane at the Flying J truckstop which is the easiest to get is $3.20 a gallon. A 20lb cylinder holds 4.6 gallons and is $14.92 on exchange at Walmart. To fill it would be $14.72 at $3.20 a gallon. And if I can fit 2 under the van where the spare tire went I can change the empty one when one goes empty and not have to run to town. Splitter regulators will pull from the primary first and only go to the second tank if the primary is empty. And don't have to buy a $400 tank. Just 2 $30 tanks. You can also run a small generator from Propane too. Just propane doesn't have as much energy per gram so you'd use more then gas. But propane is cleaner. Central Illinois is where I'm at. But I do agree. Piping everything in is very sweet. And not having to change a bottle under the van is too. I'd just have to remember to keep it filled up before a trip. Can you get a gauge that tells the amount in the tank to mount on the dash?
Thats looks good. But I was thinking did they cut your chassis? In europe you have to strenght that cutted hole. And show that to inspector. Hopely that installation dont cause any issues for the chassis.
Good morning Ser! I have Manchester Tank 6817 Permanent ASME Propane Mount Tank, 11.3 Gallon engine generator onan 2500LP. Please tell me what pipes I need to connect? please help me out
Hey Jason are you concerned with ice, snow, water, dirt getting into the cavity where they cut? That looks like a concern for rust? I like the ide of the undermount tank, but that access door has me thinking. Thanks for sharing. I'm planning on the propex HS 2000 for my E250. So I'm interested in this tank mount.
It definitely was that is why I went back in and sealed the area off from the rest of the body with expandable foam and covered that with Rust Oleum primer. Jason
I put one under my 4Runner (the 3.3 gallon version) and a simple aluminum cover keeps the gunk from splashing up on the fittings. The whole setup is working awesome.
@@jimmyr1683 I was thinking in comparison to the smaller tank he mentioned... but you are correct he went from a 20lb. tank inside to the 7lb. external, so it'll be more space inside the van but more trips to town for propane... not less...my bad. He's using the same Propex heater as I have in my trailer so he should get about a week or so worth of burn time with the 7lb tank.... I can go almost 2 weeks cooking and heating on a 11lb tank. In the summer when not running the Propex heater and just cooking it'll last months.
@@PrimalOutdoors My 30# bottles on my 5th wheel fill up to 7.1 gallons at 80% fill. My 20# portable fireplace tank fills to right around 4.4 gallons at 80% fill.
Small bottles are hugely wasteful. I believe S Bar does make a unleaded version but the Propex 2200 I have works better than those types of heaters. I carry 30 gallons of unleaded fuel I would be far more concerned about it blowing up than propane. Jason
