If possible would just replacing the handle work for you?

Not sure if it will work but here it is.

Looks like you just need a new handle from amazon. Valterra makes them.

I wish it was only that..... the pictured tube and handle were broke and hanging and the black tank handle and tube were so mangled it wouldnt open or close the valve. I have them both removed and confirned the valves are good. I just need the aluminium tube. Black tank is 54" solid length and the gray is 16"

The valve itself is fine, just the handles were damaged. Both handles extend out of the underbelly. The extension tubes are all that was damaged. So far all i can find is a single 48" tube, but i need one at 54" and one at 16".

Buy a length of aluminum rod from a steel supply store and put some threads on the ends.

The all thread felt to heavy for that length and had a lot of play when held out.

I considered going electric or cable but really dont have the time to undertake that right now. We are in the process of selling the house and going fulltime for a short period

Have you googled? "waste valve extenders handle for rv"

There are several options you can put more than one to make it the length you want.
I would go the 12 volt or cable route myself.

The rods are available through most all dealer s ask them to look in their parts distributers catalogue. But a clue for you also, a cleaning rod for cleaning shotguns has the same threads on the end. Try a sporting goods store.
