Waste gate's

On my 2002 U320 I have electric activated black and gray waste gate's.  I'm planning on replacing them as the black is passing . Dose any one know what size they are so I can order the right size ? And maybe where is a good place to order from. other than FOT.
Redwing.

You can get them from Drain Master. PN. 5197.  Phone no. Is 877.rvstuff.  Drainmaster.com. 
They are very helpful.  PM me for more info.

Edited PN:  I had listed 5202 should be 5197 - 5202 included the switch.  I did not replace the switch. Attached the existing switch wired to the new gate valve.

I don't think you'll find them looking for WASTE GATE (possessive or not).  That would be associated with the turbo charger on the engine.

A good search term would be DUMP VALVE or VALVES

I stand corrected......  The PN is:  5197.  Link to Drain Master: Products | Drain Master  Sorry about that.

 3" is the size.  I do not know if FT used Drain Master exclusively.  We removed the Water Maniford Cover and saw Drain Master printed on the Gray Valve.  I called them and they said that  PN 5197 is a direct replacement.  I did identify the year and FT as the coach.  We replaced both of our gate valves with these parts.  The Kit comes with the gate valve, 2 rubber gaskets and a lube for the valve and gasket seal.  Easy to do. however there was one bolt that was very difficult to unscrew and replace.  WE have one valve behind the water manifold and the other is behind the wet bay cover.  Your valves may not be in the same places as ours as FT placed the valves in different places.  A friend of mine with a 2003 has both valves behind his wet bay cover - faucet side.

Good luck - My fat fingers could not get to one bolt on each valve and had to call in the DW for assistance.  All worked out in the end.  ;D
