Yep, the 33-60" is too short for going the entire width of the trailer. It depends on where you want to mount it.

I just saved the link in my favorets.  Thanks, it looks like a nice set up.  My list of upgrades is getting longer every time I visit this forum.  I'm going to have to start prioritizing them.  If I do everything at once the wife will kill me.  😁

Something like the Super Slider tube might be a better option.

Home Depot's website shows that a 10' length of white 6" Schedule 40 PVC is about $41. A 33-60" Super Slider is $50. I bought one and plan to install it between the back wall of the trailer and the spare tire using a couple of 10" mending plates screwed to the rear frame bar.

Leave your credit card in the car. That way you have to think about if you REALLY need that collapsible colander set before you buy it.. LOL

That sir is an excellent idea ! Thank you.

Thanks SanD and JHoffman and all,

Forest River Customer support confirms thisand says I can order a new one. You guys responded faster though.... I haven't had my R-Pod long enough to use the toilet, and the previous owner forgot to point this thing out. I'm sure I have a large plastic hose that he said was for dumping the lines back in the "trunk." JHoffman - what's a Rino pipe ?

Thanks !
