High Wall Aframe New Faucet

Because I could not find this info:
We are in our 5th season of camping with our T21TBHW. Things are beginning to wear out. The (cheapo) sink faucet was beginning to stiffen to the point I was afraid it would break at any time. As I researched replacements, I found that the same plastic replacement was north of $200. What a joke! I couldn't find anyone who gave an experienced alternative so I wanted to give my solution. I'll link the one I used below.
It fits great. It is metal not plastic. The hoses are plenty long. All it required for installation was two .5" nipples which I found in the lawn sprinkler parts section. I am very pleased with the outcome. Total cost = $46 + tax

Your solution was a lot cheaper than mine! I didn't see that option when I was looking for alternatives. Here is a thread I started a long time ago. It's a good thing you replaced the factory faucet since it was probably a matter of time before it would leak. This was the only solution I found at the time. It cost a lot but it's solid metal everywhere so it should be bullet proof. It is a little awkward to use but so far no leaks. By the way, I do have a brand new factory spare of the original faucet sitting on a shelf somewhere.

Thanks for this Moosure and Zoinks. I just posted asking for alternatives - in the wrong section, so Administrator Dan moved me over here. then I saw your posts. My faucet broke off in my hand as I was putting it on at the beginning of a camping weekend.
