Re: Waste water gushing out Reply #26 – August 13, 2020, 05:44:54 pm Put a clear see thru elbow or extension right before your third gate valve. This way, if you see "something" that should not be there you will be prepared. Quote Selected 1 Likes

Every 3rd valve installation is a little different. You need to look at how your dump pipe is situated, and how much room you have to work with. The most simple procedure would be as you state: cut off the Thetford and glue the Valterra on the remaining pipe. Other installations require more work.

Don't know if it had that leveling system capability, or if it even had adjustable air bag suspension. (?)If it's like my old 1981 Foretravel on an Oshkosh chassis, it has 4 levers, each operating 1 HWH hydraulic leveler. Anything is possible. Quote Selected
