So my new Rhino Flex arrived today and I now realize that it will not fit in the little sewer hose storage compartment. Any thoughts? Where do you guys store yours?

Buy a 43/80" adjustable Sani-Tube and install it crossways under the trailer frame.

You can search for the fence post sewer hose mod here. You just bolt up an 8' square fence post from the garden section of a home store and cap it, hold stuff great.

Let's assume I don't have much in the way of tools besides the basics. How hard is this to install?

You need some 1/4" self tapping screws, and a drill driver. A tape measure and helper will help you get it squared up. Like a 10 minute job.

I just checked one out and they want $54 for shipping via UPS to Canada plus brokerage and duty when it arrives. I'm going to have to come up with something else.

Question: I've never really used self tapping screws. Are you guys sinking these into the frame? or the Floor? If it's the frame do these self tappers really just drill right through...no problem? Also, with fixing at one side and then the other, are you getting some sag in the middle of the tube? If so, what are you doing about it? Thank you for taking time to share your experience.  |

When I mounted mine I drilled pilot holes into the frame first.

The hoses are easy to cut. Pack as much in the storage tube as you can an cut off the rest.
