+1 to Stephen's Black Tank hanger strap comment (video link below). Mine fell off coming back from FL to MI this winter, so pre-fix this or keep a close watch on it. I invested in a Tire Pressure Monitor System before I did the long winter trip and really like having it. I normally re-torque my lug nuts every few hundred miles. One other thing, I really like keeping my speed between 55-60 for best mpg and most relaxing trip. Plan on extra time getting places and enjoy the process along with the destinations. ~PP

Greetings:

I added a second bracket to both drains on my 179.  I used a pipe bracket that I bought at Menards on the black pipe and a strap on the grey water.  I attached the strap behind one of the gate valve bolts and used a self tapping screws into the frame for both.

I checked the hangers on our 190 and sure enough both were loose.
Thanks for this heads up.
