Has anyone changed their sewer hose carrier yet? We found that ours was too short. Question

You can only put a 10ft hose in it ... anything else will be too long. 10ft should be ample length for it's purpose ...

Yeah but when I purchased this I bought a starter kit with the Rhino hose (which I really like and so do other people I have talked to) and it will not fit in it. The tube is too short and it's diameter is to small. I'm planning on replacing mine eventually...the tube, not the sewer hose.

We also got the Rhino starter kit. So our quick fix is a 48" long schedule 40 4" PVC pipe with a end cap and a clean out plug cap. (2)  4.5" extra long muffler clamps. Bolt everything to the same brace and you're done.

 We replaced our sewer hose carrier using 48" schedule 40 PVC pipe and 41/2" muffler clamps. Just use the same footprint of the old carrier.

STAN: you did a good job on that.  It looks real good!  I think when I do mine I'll get stainless steel clamps though.

EDIT: thanks for posting the pics!
