Sewer hose storage

Have a new fuel 287, the sewer hose storage tube is only 26” long, weak sauce, anyone have any suggestions to either make it longer or a good one to buy that is at least 47”?

I put that very one on the back door (bottom) of my FUEL-250. I first tried mounting it on
the left side up front. (I attached another metal arm way up front to support it) but it was
closer to the generator exhaust than I wanted. Eventually i want to fabricate a side to side 8'
one that goes under the entire trailer side to side (not front to rear).

I have no idea why they even bother with a 26" tube - Until I put the tube on the back I just
kept all my hoses in a big rubbermaid tote. :)

I use two of these on our trailer. I added T-bolt hose clamps around the center where the two pipes slide together. Once the clamps were tight the hose holder had no sag.

These are not the exact clamps I used, but similar. I have an assortment of T-bolts from our boats.

I supported the center of mine also with 2 clamps made for sewer hose holders so it's supported by the edge and two other spots. It doesn't move on the door.

Thanks! That’s what I was thinking as well!

Hmmm not so much a design idea as a problem solver imo, was looking for a fix to an issue or so I thought.

While I have an under trailer storage tube I use a (66L ?) covered storage tub from walmart. Several hoses and other sewer related items all stay together.

I'm cofused? I store mine in the rear bumper, pull end cap off and it slides right in. Is this not standard on most trailers?

I don't have a rear bumper, just one large shell (top to bottom, side to side).
