Wavery, I’ve tried to look back to your posts regarding your 13 gallon black tank and RV toilet. My TM toilet is faltering and I’m looking into options as the last thing I want to do is repair the recirculating dinosaur.
Did you do any posts here on your change out?
Thanks,
Tony

Here is a link to my build post.

https://www.trailmanorowners.com/for...ght=fiberglass

If you are good with fiberglass and not a big person, this really isn't that terrible of job. It was very hard on me because I'm 6'2" and 225#. I'm also in my late 70's with extreme arthritis in my wrists which makes working with my hands difficult.

If I were in my 40's or 50's this job wouldn't be bad. I have a long background in fiberglass production on sailboats. If I had it to do again, I would build a mold and just install the finished tank.

Either way, I recommend installing a steel reinforcement where the wheel well is. I used 10G steel plate and fiberglassed it in place during the fiberglass build. This pic was taken of the form, just before starting to lay the f/g.

Just for the sake of interest, in what way is your recirc toilet faltering?
