Got the new toilet set-up in and ready to go. No leaks and managed to get the dump valves all rejigged and in place without much trouble. At least not as much as I expected there could have been!

I had to build everything above the black tank gate valve from scratch, since moving everything toward the rear made it so the handle of the black tank gate valve ran into the 1 1/2” pipe from the grey tank, and prevented complete opening of the valve. A new 90 street elbow allowed me to set up the gate valve at a 45 degree angle, so I can clear the grey tank pipe and have additional insurance against accidental opening and leaks from vibration.

However all of the cutting and manipulation and very slight misalignment at the grey tank pipe/gate valve connection has resulted in a leak at the grey tank/pipe connection.

Looks like I may have to do some rebuilding of the grey pipe as well as reseal that connection at the tank.

But that is for another day.
