Jerry,
This picture,
http://www.oldengine.org/members/jdunmyer/airstream/may27_01.jpg shows
the clamp/hanger that I used on my main gas line. It's plastic and is
meant to support 1/2" copper water pipe. I used metal cable clamps with
rubber inserts on the smaller gas lines and generally tried to attach
them to the frame or cross members. A/S themselves used crappy little
strips of aluminum, Pop-Riveted to the bellyskin, and most were rotted,
broken, or detached on my trailer.
