A while back someone did a really clean install with a macerator, sweeping Y and second gate valve to retain old school dump and get last bit out at end of trip. Can someone point me to that writeup? I want both.

You an go to our instrctio sheet as see the diagram of our kit and always
order individual parts.
The adapter by Lynn Clark is the best for pulling out the most of any one
can acquire.

Chuck,
Your install looks great, but I have one concern with your pump bracket. You have one side of the bracket bolted to the frame and the other side bolted to the body. Since the body is mounted on rubber, the two can move a bit so something has to give over time...?

Since the black tank and its piping are mounted to the body, I mounted the pump to the body as well so it all moves together.

Maybe I'm just anal?

If you look at the one Blane Merrell did and our reducer,you'll see that
they will pull down the level of fluid lot more than a standard reducer.
Make a difference in the amount expelled.
Having 4-5 gallon left vs. 10-12gal.

Bruce,
I'm curious whether the strap fastener is lag screwed into the plywood floor or bolted. But even without that strap the macerator isn't going anywhere with that beefy bracket and two bolts into the cross member. The strap to the body is just a brace for vibration and bouncing.
