- 4x4vanExplorer IIIThere is no need to buy a new grille or modify an existing grille. Every RV has both a high pressure side (before the regulator) and a low pressure side (after the regulator).
If your grill uses a regulator AT the grill, then install a T with a quick connect fitting BEFORE the RV's regulator (between tank & regulator). If your grill does not use a regulator at the grill, then install a T with a quick connect fitting AFTER the RV's regulator. Not rocket science.
To the OP; simply install a T with a quick connect fitting anywhere AFTER your RV's regulator; where ever it is convenient. - bethsrequestExplorerWe checked with KZ and our unit does not come with the T fitting for the Grill. But thanks for the suggestion.
- myredracerExplorer IIOur KZ Spree came with a capped off tee fitting on the black iron pipe under the trailer. Your Durango probably has a tee as well. We had our dealer add a quick connect fitting. Easy to do yourself if you get the right parts and pieces. This photo shows a quick connect I added to a previous TT. Our dealer did something similar.
The regulator on a Weber Q or Roadtrip grill can easily be removed and a quick connect fitting added to the grill. If you do this, I'd suggest a 20' 3/8" hose (instead of 1/4") and get the type that is more flexible type so it coils up easier. - bethsrequestExplorerThanks all for your suggestions. I'm going to try red31 suggestion of the AD 500 adapter. I'll let you know how it goes.

I have the opposite situation. My TT is equipped with a quick disconnect to run a hose from the trailer to my portable propane grill. The propane pressure in the pipe line that my quick disconnect is on is already reduced by the regulator at the tanks. And my potable grill also has a propane regulator.
I haven't tried the grill yet, but I have read where the grill will not perform well with two pressure regulators. I can't just remove the regulator from the grill, it also acts as the on/off control. :?
Easy solution, guaranteed to work - invest in a Weber Q grill that will serve you well for years and remove the regulator which is separate from the gas valve. You'll need a hose with a quick disconnect fitting at one end that will connect to your trailer's low pressure quick disconnect fitting and at the other end a threaded fitting that will thread directly into the Q's gas valve in place of it's regulator. Many do it, works like a charm. - Better IMO to put a low pressure regulator on that bottle and avoid modifying the grill.
- Chris_BryantExplorer IIWhy not just have a low pressure quick disconnect connection added?

Regulators are relatively cheap. You'll need on somewhere before your grill. Most backyard grill have small ones either on the tank or at the grill housing.
