Chuck, very nice man, very nice!!
Until you can get something like this built and you have a rear ladder, you can buy an $11 "over the ladder chair rack" from Camping World, Amazon or any camping place. Put it in something that will hold it and bend out the upright arms a bit. Then hang it on the ladder and place the tank in it and use an X strapping method with a long ratchet strap and go. Not the prettiest, but very functional and under $20. Then when you have time, build the design Chuck has!
Here is what I am talking about.

I made my own levelling ramps that give up to 6" of lift, enough for anywhere that we are likely to go! So easy to set up too, just get into parking spot, place ramp/s beside wheels on low side, move forward or backwards (depending on situation) place ramps in wheel tracks then drive trailer on to ramp, I just watch the bubble in the level that is on the front cap until that is centred then apply park brake & unhitch.
Everything stores in my rear side locker including wood blocks for the jacks.

Really simple, some 4ft lengths of 3x2 cut to a taper, 3/4" marine ply glued & screwed to both top & bottom, I made 2 tapered sections & 1 level section to give me the biggest range of lift & to make it easy to handle. They are about 10" wide as I had the material as off cuts from a job & the length was determined by the available locker space. It works so well that I can be parked, levelled & jacks down & slide out in less than 10 minutes. I've seen people spend ages with planks of wood and still not be very level, unfortunately I'm a bit ocd about some things lol!
