switching to dual propane
My new trailer came with a single propane bottle setup. I am planning to switch to dual bottles. Is there anything hard about that? I think I need a new rack, a switchover valve, and a new cover. ...

You'll also need a double holder, a rod, and a large wingnut to secure the new load. Maybe a 30 or 40 pounder single would be easier if height isn't an issue?
The propane holders I see on etrailer include a shelf, the rod, and a crossbar the holds on to the top of the propane tanks. I’m not sure how the switchover valve mounts.
Thanks to the people who showed the combined switchover/regulator. That does make mounting easier.
We do a lot of spring and fall camping. It’s less crowded then. With a single tank what I would wind up doing is carrying a spare tank in the truck so I can swap it when the first one goes empty. I don’t really like carrying a propane tank in the truck, and the first one is likely to go empty at an inconvenient time, like when I’m off doing something, so DW has to do the switchover.
