replace plumbing fitting

[rapidly]

The photo shows the water connections to the outside shower on my Rockwood 2514G popup (2016 model year). In trying to work on the water pump I noticed one of these is apparently cracked, as when I pressured-up the pump a fine spray of water started spraying out the side of the fitting. Can anyone tell me where I could order a replacement fitting? Including, hopefully, the tube clamps on the fitting.

Hello,
other than going through a RV dealer or parts outlet,
I found all I needed for repairs/modifications at both Ace Hardware or Tractor Supply Co where they sell the agriculture sprayer connections and hoses.

I didn't have the tool for the clamp (although you could use pliers I suppose), I went with the small size screw hose clamps.
good luck!

Your photo looks like the hot water connection is very loose - there is way too much thread showing. I believe the screw on connections are garden hose type connections - there is a washer inside to prevent leaks when fitting is tight. You might want to check for the washer(s) when you tighten the fitting.

When I cracked the cover on the outside shower on my A-frame (looks identical to what you have), I called Forest River for replacement. Outside shower came as a complete box (valves, shower head, hose, and box), could not order parts. Cost was $40. Complete box did make installation very easy, simply unscrew the water connections, remove and replace box from outside, screw on the water connections.

Thanks, i should have noted that it was not screwed on tight in the photo as i had removed it to clean up the water that leaked out and then just pressed it back on. It was tight when I observed the spraying though.

As others have noted, the fittings are available at most hardware stores.

It would also be a good idea to buy a set of cinch clamps and a crimping tool like this https://www.amazon.com/IWISS-Clamps-...662083&sr=8-18 and forget the gear clamps.

Thanks everyone! Are the cinch clamps that are on there now reusable? Or do they need to be replaced after removal.

[Cypressloser]

No. Unfortunately cinch clamps and pex rings are not reusable, but they are reasonably priced.

I would just use the screw type hose clamps since it's on the hose and not a PEX line.......I used them when I put a backflow preventer on my water pump never had an issue with them leaking you can get them at Lowes or Home Depot.
