Which model TM are you talking about? I have a single 7 gal tank that I use for my grill at home, and I've eyed sticking it on the TM to see if two of these would fit, but first I want to get a fully loaded tongue weight with the 5 gal tanks to see how marginal I am, and then my next question is whether they will be in the way when you swing front shell up and down.

I've found that the arc that the front shell follows takes up some of the space on the tongue that might otherwise hold something (such as the Yamaha EF2400is generator). I don't think the actual mounting would be very difficult, although I haven't looked at the hoses to see if they would reach. I think instead of switching to 30 lb tanks I'll eventually add a 3rd tank of 5 or 11 lbs for the extra appliances like ShrimpBurrito (Dave) has done, so that the lantern/grill/etc would be more portable. They should be short enough to fit on my tongue without getting in the way of the swinging front shell, although I'd verify it first.
