2. It sounds like the PO removed the dump pipe and slide valve from under the trailer. You will need to replace these, and this is probably the biggest task you face.
3. I would bet that the wax ring is either missing or dried out, and you will need to replace it. Note that you can't buy a replacement at a hardware store or big box store. It is a different size, and you need to get it from an RV place.
4. You replace the mounting clips by setting them in place with a pair of needle nose pliers, and then tunking them home with a long screwdriver. Fingers aren't long enough or tough enough.
5. It sounds like you have read the toilet tutorials in the TM Tech Library. Good for you.

7: Someone is sure to suggest that you install a cassette toilet at this point. Though I wouldn't do it, you might consider it.

The dump valve for the black and gray is still there. he had removed the thetford electra magic . The float is not stuck , I have it upside down in that pic, there was a plastic sleeve that was around float assemby as shown here, I removed that plastic sleeve now the tank shows empty.
