Why don't you mosey along to a caravan park or a place that sell used campers and have a look at their gas setup.

Hi Mud80,
Have a look at this thread, 81804. I know mark is talking about an other gerry can holder, but he has the twin gas bottle holder as well as a pole holder.
Contact those members and see if they can send you a few pics of their set ups.
I believe Jayco sell all the bits needed to set it up.
Also try a Google Images search, that may have some pictures.
And rock on down to a local Caravan park and have a walk about.
Cheers.

Hi mate,
when we had a goldstream we just welded a box section bar 100mm x 25mm across the camper draw bar then put 2 x 9kg gas bottles side by side with a jerry can holder next to them so they were all in a row. Just fitted inside the bed holderupper arms ( technical term ) my mate with a jayco hawke put his 2 x 9's side by side with a jerry can holder in front

I bought the gas rings and i just fabricated the jerry holder and welded it to a 4mm sheet with folded edges for strength and had it galvanised. Sorry about all the junk around the trailer but it will give you an idea.. Michael

gday mate. i have posted three pics of my Jayco Swan Outback with the twin jerry/gas bottle holders i made myself. i also asked at Jayco and the only thing i got was a blank look.

all i did was extend the original bracket on the bottom that the whole lot sits on and bought another jerry can holder ( i bought the swan with single of each on it).
the pole holders were on it when i purchased it,they mount on with the brackets to hold that size pvc pipe with.when i mounted the whole lot on , instead of welding it on i bolted it on just in case i needed to remove it at some stage.

i just cut and re-welded the bed support lugs slightly forward( only a couple of inches.

G'day, to keep the weight down maybe use two 4.5 kg bottles instead of two 9 kg bottles, just a thought.......... John

There was a retro fit kit because I put it on my Jayco Swan. You had to cut off the bed support legs. Bolt some new ones on and then the twin gas bottle holder bolted to the A frame. All brackets and fittings were included in the kit. I can take photos but you will need to remind me as it is Friday and beer drinking day!!!

It was an easy fit.

I am in Eastern suburbs of Melbourne. You are welcome to come and have a look if you are over this way.

Cheers Graham
