When I replaced my black tank I cut the top off of the old tank & used it
for a template.
Worked great.

For gm floorplan coaches like yours we can get the fittings installed beforehand. Cannot be with any of the Transmode models. The slip in compression fittings do work well witbout any sealant if the holes are cut right. Good luck,

Jim,

So you are saying to use the rubber grommets as the fittings that go in the top of the tank. They will seal around the ABS pipe that slips into them and they won't leak? Do you use any sealant or adhesive to hold them in place? Do you use anything on the pipes as a back up seal when sliding the pipes into the grommets?

Thanks!

Jim and everyone else.

Jim, I tried to send you a PM. Don't know if I'm doing it right but when I tried to send it it says you aren't accepting PMs.

We have read all the posts and are starting to buy all the parts, the tank, fittings and so forth. Everyone has been extremely helpful and we believe we have a workable plan in place to replace the black tank. We will post results if/when it works or not in hopes it will help someone else in the future. We will be doing this as soon as we get a little warmer weather. We're working in a barn but without heat.

We will be installing a macerator once the tank is in place and have a plan for that too. What type of hose is used as the discharge hose out of the macerator and where can we get it? Right now our plan is to use spa hose - Watts 1 inch ID PVC Spa Flex Hose that we can get through Home Depot, 50 ft for $50. If this isn't a good idea or something else is better please let us know.

Again, thanks to everyone for your input. Another weekend project that will take us all spring.
