Dump Valve Modification...

Post by Alaskan »

As we all know that plastic plumbing hanging down is vulnerable to dragging or being knocked off..

On all my B190's its one of the first things I changed..

I'll start with the mods for the 97 and newer rigs

Before....

The 1999 came with the hoop you see in this picture as protection for the plastic pipe.

After...

Pre 1997.....

On my 1991 I took that entire dump valve assembly completely apart, got rid of the elbows, separated the drains and redid did the system there to get it up higher..

All that "junk" hangs down so far its very vulnerable to damage, especially now that our rigs don't sit as high in the rear as they did when new...

On the gray water dump valve as you can see (rear valve) I used a cap with the garden hose outlet as it can easily be emptied in a number of places.
