What version or suppliers have you all used for cross over duel tank tube dry breaks?
 Or what other ways have you found to deal with cross over tubes?

1976RD400C

One thing is for sure, it is very difficult to get your fingers in there to connect and disconnect them.

Put a small inline on/off valve close to one side; that way you can turn off the one side, and clip a hemostat (or whatever) to the open line when disconnecting - just leave enough line on the valve side to bend it out of the way to clear the frame during tank removal.

I do that on all my tanks with balance tubes - it saves messes.

i like the valve idea,  but on the ones ive used, the motion pro ones john at ec sell seem to work the best. i have another one i recently bought that seems realky good out of aborger source im testing. i have had cheap ones fail, badly, in use.  they are def not something to cheap out on. however, line pinch pliers are also a huge help, and a vacuum cap handy.  pinch one end off, cap the other. move fast and you're ok

I have had this one I got off ebay for 2-3 years, it is cheap but I havent had any issues with it so far, a little bit of fuel comes out when trying to disconnect and connect it but its pretty easy and never had any actual leaks. As far as fuel line went for it, im using some braided line I got from belmetric.
