The threaded rod sizes for the TorkLift Fortress GasLock Kit for Propane Tanks # TLA7701 and # TLA7702 simply refer to the diameter of the vertical propane support rod on your existing setup. You can take a quick measurement on your propane rod and if it has a diameter of 3/8 inches, you will use # TLA7701. If it has a 1/2 inch diameter you will instead use # TLA7702.
For precise measurements, using a digital caliper like # PTW80157 can be very helpful. These are also nice to have around for various other projects as well.
I have attached a video demonstration for both the GasLock Kit and the digital caliper for you to check out.
