Re: [VAL] 72 Globetrotter Repairs



Um er, I have some bad news for you.  It doesn't have a gray water tank, 
never did. It's designed to have the gray water just run out on the 
ground, which was OK in 1972. They started putting them in in 1974.  We 
use a blue tank on the ground to catch the gray water, called Blue Boys 
in any camping store, lots of sizes.

To add one is very tricky.  First of all you are adding a lot of weight 
that the trailer isn't designed for. And then the plumbing has to be 
completely redone. check the archives at tompatterson.com for some 
ideas.  There is no easy solution so far.

As for the "banana wrap" as that is called, I yield to better minds.
