Im assuming alot of you guys are running macerators if you not you have the pipe rerouted to the driver side. Mine is still coming directly out of the back and with the hitch and the bikes on the back it is becoming more and more of chore to empty the tank. Can anyone tell me the angles for the elbows ill need to make it so i can reroute the pipe to the side. I just dont want to have to go in and out of store a hundred times to get it right. Or if anyone has any better ways of routing the pipe im open for suggestions, but we are constantly moving so nothing with to much down time.

Thanks from the GMC Nomads

Jim,

Here's a link to the macerator installation I did at Jim Bounds Coop on my Avion, view the photo titled "Before Macerator Installation" first.

Unfortunately I don't have a list of the fittings.

So I got a chance to poke around your site Jim and thanks for the info. But I think I wasn't very clear as to what I was looking for but excuse my remedial drawing. I was hoping someone had info on the sewer pipe being discharged from the driver side of the rig.
Thanks the nomads

Jimmy,

Do you have all the books?

The original dump pipe is just about centered and is held up by a rubber stretchy strap.

It is allowed to swing down because there is an O-ring sealed threaded joint between the two elbows. There is a 22-1/2 bend after that and the two elbow joint can be flipped over (if it is not all glued in place), then you can do what ever creative plumbing you choose. I don't believe anybody has packaged a kit for this.

Matt
