Can anyone tell me the tank capacities? Bought used and none of the paperwork shows individual tank capacities.
Thanks.

Thanks - looks like you are all finding what I did - different information depending on where you look. Was hoping there might be an owner, or former owner who could tell me more. I have two grey water tanks - galley and shower and can't seem to find out how much each holds.

Sounds like you have the East Coast model. If that's the case then you have two 50 gallon grey tanks.

The best and most accurate way to tell what you have is to drain them and then fill them one at a time using a hose end water meter to tell how much water you put in each one.

Wildcats built on the west coast were different from those built in Indiana. Even so, in 2008 the tank capacities changed along with the front cap design mid-year. I owned an early model 2008 RKBS and it had the smaller tank capacities. If your front cap looks like this you probably have the smaller tank capacities.

You can find where your Wildcat was made by looking at the Manufacturers Label that is located on the driver’s side just under the water connection. It will tell you where and what date your trailer was manufactured. Here’s a picture with a red arrow pointing to where that label is.
