More pics February 22, 1999
Some of the folks have asked for pics from the Pit. Here are some rushed ones. More to
come. When the Rig gets moved I'll do the back half not that there's that much back there.
Why do I have to move it? I was trying to economize ( I guess ) so I only built the pit
16 feet long. Should'a gone full length. Oh well.
Enjoy! As to what you see... put your imagination to the test. If you have specific
questions please email me.

Added some more pics from the pit today as I had to move the rig to get the back half
over the pit area to do the macerator outlet hose
modifications.
Before diving into the pit... here is why I recommend a pit longer than 16 feet if at
all possible:
The original thought during construction was that
it woukd not be a hassle to turn the coach around as needed. As it turned out it's more of
a hassle in real life.
I have to navigate into the garage via my regular driveway in front of the house. Didn't
want to cut any trees to get a straight shot in from the street. It's real easy to back it
in but sure takes some wiggling around to get back out when nosing it in. Hence the
partially out when the weather is nice.

storage for the macerator pump-out.

My fuel filter installation. Did the first change this maintenance go-around and did find
some metal shavings in it. Not many, but enough to make me glad I added it when I did the
Rance Fuel Injection mod.
