Hi All, When I bought my '77 Palm Beach which I recently sold it was equipped with Dual Propane / Gas power. It had a similar setup to the one just pictured of John Muller's Coach. The propane was located in a tank mounted on an extension that replaced the mounts for the rear bumper. The mount was professionally built to support the Propane tank and the stock bumper cylinders and Bumper.The main problem was that the Propane tank was not baffled correctly as I drove it home from Mn to NY as I went around curves suddenly the liquid propane would shift from one side to the other causing the whole MH to shift and sway dragging the rear with it a very SCARY experience.
When I removed the tank the original Bumper etc just bolted up. I still have the whole set up with the exception of the Tank and lines from front to rear. There was even a solenoid in the fuel line to cut off the fuel when it was run on Propane I left that in the Coach where it served as a fuel cut off anti theft device. The tank I cut up since it was too large to keep. I tried bringing it to the Dump but it was rejected, I was told it had to be de-commissioned??? I cut it up into small parts that was real De-commissioning.
A couple of years ago someone on the Forum wanted the Bumper extension but shipping was a problem so I still have it. I might even have photos some place.
