Propane/Battery Plastic cover replacement?


 

开云体育

Hello!! I have a 2006 T@B and the front plastic cover over the propane gas tank and battery broke up and away from where it adheres to the frame. Does anyone have any suggestions for how/what to replace it with? It was so cute and matching before! :(

I’ve seen lots of ideas for the tongue storage area over the years on this forum. You’ll have to go digging in the archives to find them, though. I looked for my own photos from TAB rallies in the PNW but didn’t find anything useful.

Go to?/g/tabtrailers?and enter “propane cover” or “propane tank cover” in the Search box and you’ll find a lot of relevant archived messages, many with photos or product links. It’s common to put a floor in the plastic box, or replace the box with a diamond plate box to stash more campground gear like power cords and hoses.

Lecia I had the same thing happen to my 07 a couple weeks ago. Would appreciate hearing what others have done. I’ve certainly seen some diamond plate aluminum boxes used.?

2007 Tab, with a modified exterior. I replaced the original plastic cover with an aluminum diamond plate box. I changed to an 11lb propane tank so that it would fit in the lid, as a 20lb'er would fit in the box itself but the lid is narrower.

Nice job! That looks awesome! I’m going to have to find someone to do that for me. Where did you purchase your box??
And I found some directions in the files section about how to modify a box. Haven’t read yet but so impressed by the resources available from this group!

Are you in Canada? I bought it at Canadian Tire, but you can find them online pretty easily, as well locally. Search for "trailer tongue (storage) box". Good luck!

Hello T@B people,
Regarding the propane box, ours (on our 2007 T@B) also cracked after a year or two and we duct-taped it back together
…and it’s held up for several years now!
But, replacing probably would have been a better option if we had been closer to a dealer at the time!
But, the T@B lives on!
Cheers,
