That's pretty snazzy. Nice that it's right up by the propane cylinder - you can likely put in a "T" before the regulator for a high pressure grill. Do you have any pictures of it without the grill on? And, how small does it break down for travel?

( I probably should just ask you to build it for me lol ). How is that mounting to your landing gear?

Thanks again

Sorry I was in Florida for a week and just got back.

The grill is about 14" away from the camper but I have not got to test it yet. I do have a quick connect on it, feeds up from the frame into the LP tank area, I just put a T after the switch over. To mount to the running gear I took 2" ID share tube and cut one side off so it would slide one, then just bolted it to the running gear. I welded a 1" solid stock to the tube then I just slide the 1" ID tube the grill mount is made of.

Let me know if you need more questions answered

I have one of those I took off of my outback- if you were closer you could have it. Not sure it's worth the shipping....

Really worked well though

That's what I wanted orignally but I found out the price and was like "I can make something better". Let's just say I went WAY over budget! But my creation is light as hell and won't bend/twist the bumper. 😋

Grill mount

Okay, I would like to attach a mount to my bumper. However, we were told that if I add anything to the bumper then my warranty could be voided. Is this true or a sales pitch?

If you only use it when sitting still and don't leave it on while towing, it shouldn't hurt a thing. Bolt on whatever mount you come up with or better yet, figure out how to just slip it on and remove it while towing.

Awesome, thanks I think I'll get on it next week. I was just looking at my grill to see how it will attach to the grill and I wish mine looked as good as yours although its a nice s.s. grill i have not taken very good care of it oh well. I plan on looking at hose options this weekend. my camper has a quick connect on it right under the lp tanks to make it easy.

Thanks again!!!
