Cable operated blackwater valve

The other day I went to close my cable operated black water tank valve, and the plastic threaded part broke. The valve will not close. (found out the hard way). I have found the valve online. Is it hard to replace?
Thanks.
Todd.

Hey Windrider. Thought it would appear, cause I filled out all of the info when I registered. Anyway, I have a 2009 Forest River Cedar Creek 34 SATS.

The valve and cable aren't hard to replace. Make real sure the tank is empty before you loosen the first bolt and it's a good idea to have a bucket sitting under it to catch any drips when you first loosen it.
