Kitchen faucet replacement

Hello all. Cant find an answer to my problem so coming to the pros! I need to replace my kitchen faucet in rockwood roo 19. It broke. I got a new faucet...got the fa tucet thumb screws loose but since I cannot actually see what I am doing as the fittings are behind the bowl and a small areaa, I cannot figure how to disconnect what I belie e to be the water lines. Follow them up with hand feels like some type fittinin I cannot bug by hand. Area to small for 2 hands with a wrench. Anyone with help ? If I could see the thing I might be able to figure it out. Same thing Las year and rv store replaced plastic screw down on fact this year they "cannot identify part" duhhh. Thanks for any advice

Are you using a "basin wrench" ? These are made for those tight spots under the sink .

As butch said, a basin wrench is your best net in that space.

You can hold your phone up under there and take a picture of the lines and bottom of faucet, so you'd know what they look like if you can't get your head under there to look.

The Installers at the Factory are "Double Jointed Contortionist", big fisted/blind/easily cut/people should NEVER try to work on RVs! Add to all this most people turn the fitting nuts the Wrong Way when trying to loosen these fitting! It is not a "Cakewalk" to change SOME of these Fixtures but if you take your time it Helps! When I changed ours we went to REAL ones from Lowes/HD! Youroo!!
