Craig, I struggle a bit wiith the c or hook shaped traingles.  Seriously a fiddle with them in a 720 degree fashion until i can get them out or in.

Agreed. The new ones are a PITA to get in and out of the front leg. Why Weber reengineered the front hook is beyond me.  :-\

I actually prefer the new style vs the old hook. It hides it better
and locks the leg in good.

"and locks the leg in good."

Contacted Weber and they are sending me a triangle out. Will update when I receive it. I now have a replacement triangle for my 18.5.  ;D

Maybe I'm crazy but the new style feels more solid. Of course I'm a Weber neophyte. As Dennis Miller says "That's just my opinion, I could be wrong! Aw fuck it, Who wants pie!

Love Dennis Miller! Been a fan since his SNL days.  Wish his radio show was still on in my market.  :(

Replacement Triangle arrived and fits perfect . The 22.5 kit had a 18.5 triangle in it.
