Got a new 4 Corny keg system and just got my fridge.. Now I am ready to order shank and tap assemblies, but I am not sure on what size I need?

I am guessing for the shank length you just measure how thick your fridge door is? Any tricks here?

As for the diamter, what do you guys recommend? I have 3/16 beer line.

Thanks guys
 
door thickness +about 1" for assembly pieces,this includes shank, nipple, locking nut, and washer.

keep your sizing as close thruout your system as possible since restriction increase pressures and will cause dispensing issues with foaming or undercarb
