Got out to the coach today. Now everyone can see what Stump sent. As you can see hose has been stretched a little. When I replace it going to get a couple of 1/2" 90 degree poly street els and get the hose pointing up. Don't use PVC. Threads bind up. Get the poly ones in the lawn sprinkler section, they swivel. There black. They work great on sprinkler heads near sidewalks that constantly get broken off.

"One picture is better than a thousand words" fits this post. All that searching trying to match up something in the first picture was way off base.

I feel like too embarrassed to come back to reply this thread. I have no idea that a Diverter Spout was installed there. I thought it is just as simple as a shower hose. I was so wrong. As @craneman said "One picture is better than a thousand words" After seeing @stump picture, everything make sense. It is so easy.

Don't let lack of knowledge lead to embarrassment. It's easy for some of us who have the exact same bathroom to easily diagnose the problem but if you had never seen one before how would you know? It doesn't hurt that I was an owner of an Ace Hardware store for 15 years and know this to be a Moen shower valve set up. 

Please post up a picture of your kitchen sink faucet, may have a surprise for you there as well.

On my first trip to Quartzite I was lamenting that the steering wheel was way to low and I was going to replace the the steering column with something taller. The guys took me back to the coach and one of them ( Andy 2 ? ) walked up to the front of the rig, turned the horn ring counterclockwise and my FULLY HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE STEERING COLUMN, promptly and magically jumped up a good 10 inches. Now that's embarrassing!

Thank you for your kind word.
The people on this forum truly makes the Foretravel coach ownership experience amazing.

What could be the surprise of the kitchen sink faucet?
Currently the main faucet is working fine. The spray is not working. The water filter (RO filter) is not working.
Will see if I can get a good picture.

I;m banking on the fact that since the shower valve is a Moen, in our model the kitchen faucet is the same as mine. If so your faucet can do this to fill large pots, etc.

This seems to be the only shower thread I can find.  We are not happy with our shower head and want to replace the old brass colored one with something new.  I'm not familiar with the shower attachment, but I'm looking at this:

Amazon.com: Dura Faucet Premium RV Handheld Shower Wand and Hose Kit -...

Amazon.com: Dura Faucet RV Shower Slide Bar - for RV's, Motorhomes, Travel...

Does it look like I'm looking at the right stuff?

That definitely looks better quality that the RV models.  Have you seen any with an on/off valve or one that can be put inline?

We kept the original valve (pull on, turn for temp) but put in a new cartridge. We could have put in a constant flow, temperatire balanced valve body (turn counterclockwise on/cold/ warmer).

New hose, single point bracket, softer rain like shower head and lower flow rate.
