Re: Replacing tub drain flange in a 1988 34X

Just an fyi. I'm replacing the tub drain on my '89 32S. The oem is 1 1/4" which nobody makes, or like hens teeth. There are kits to replace the drain with the trap, that is special to this application. Recpro is one, etrailer has another I think. The problem is their kits use 1 1/4" and 1 ...

Re: 3150 Watts of Solar on our Avion
