Cut it with a hole saw in the elbow, so draw your own conclusion. Depends on the angle you look at it as to whether it's an oval.

I did not mod mine and just move the hose. I do not get the Wife to do it either. The OP was asking about Y etc. Seems we have several opinions and even Modifications to a FR engineering dump system that could be implemented. The Y is about $15 bucks and a couple 10 ft Hoses $40 so the mod is cheaper and will work if you sue the correct glue.

On my sabre, one is in front of the axle, and one behind. Both are covered by the slides.

Be about a $25. or less mod, using the proper glue. Tools not included, and Kenny, that's why this is being done.

Mine's got 2 outlets... Just hook it all up to a Y and into the ground. It's easy... I've worked on mine enough already... I'm not about to make more work on it... and it's getting traded next year anyway.

With no campground having their pipe in a standard location, you'll need to pack a couple 20' hoses, then have a place to store them. Some have the room, some don't. Some people can't get under to move hoses, and even if one could, you still need to pull the handle, unless you've got the electrical style dump valve

I keep my hoses safe inside my cargo bay in a rubber made bin. I have heard of problems with some fence post issues...

I think materials are closer to 50 bucks.

Check the price on a 1-1/2" drain valve and 8' of 1-1/2" black pvc pipe and a 1-1/2" rubber connector. That's all it takes. Been there, did it.

So, been reading about the poop pump.

That might be a nice solution to the dual outlets. Join together under the frame, mount the pump underneath.

Good idea?

From an actual 36qbok owner......we are on a seasonal /permanent Site so we have hard pipe untill just inches from the bayonet hookups. But during normal camping we haven't had the need to have the rear hooked up. Yes i have a Y and enough hose, but the rear gray would take weeks to fill. And even with 3 kids + extras (my 3 are 4, 7, & 14) and we get 2 weekends without dumping the rear black and it is never more than 2/3 full.
Now the front...... we have to have it hooked up all the time. The front gray will stay open all the time and we can only get 1 weekend out of the front black or maybe 2 if only a quick weekend or without some of the kids.
The middle gray or the rear gray - in the front area of tanks. This one will last for along time as its only fed from the kitchen sink.
Give it a shot, but for me if i was "tow" camping all the time, id just use one hose and just move to the rear to dump before hauling, as there isnt any real need to dump the rear tanks that much.
Good luck!!

I have the same hookup as Bob does and if you hook it up before you put the slide out you don't have to crawl around.

Only problem with this is with the tank open, you are venting the whole cg sewer system thru your trailers vent system.
