Here's another example of mounting the sewer tubes behind the drop frame and of also a sewer fittings storage box. Hope this helps too.

Paulh !! Is this your setup ?? NICE !! Mine is similar, but I do not have the fittings box shown in pics 5 & 6. Do you have a link to where I might find the box?? Thx.

The box was custom made to fit using 24 ga. "black matte" sheet metal which is a baked on finish that did not require painting. The size totally depends on where you want to locate the box. If you'd like to have the drawings of my box's dimensions just PM me so that we don't keep hijacking Jerrod's thread.

I made up a new and improved 7-way box today. This new box has the same 3 position switch, one way turns on all of the tail/marker light and the other way - I installed 2 diodes to split the power coming from my flasher going to the right & left turn signals, but it will not back feed when using the blinker on the truck.
Here's some pictures of my diode project. & My new box wiring.

Your boxes look real nice Jerrod. I like them a lot

Basically I've isolated the flasher to run just the turn signals now and not all of the lights like before. I'm making one up right now that when you flip the switch one way it will turn on all lights. Then when you flip it the other way you will get all lights ON and the turn signals flashing.
That would be ideal for if you had to leave it on the side of the road and run get parts in the truck or if you had to have your truck towed and leave the RV there until someone can pick it up.
The last version everything​ flashed.
This new diode deal can be installed in the old boxes pretty easily if some of you want to upgrade.

New game for you guys

Can anyone tell what is wrong in this box ????
I didn't catch it until I was doing some bench testing and it wasn't working as intended. I finally figured out why.
I had a few glasses of some really good wine the other night when I put it together. Oops not a good idea.

Running lights are only hooked up to one side of the switch?? I really like your games. Kinda like finding Waldo. My kids could always find Waldo before me.

The red wire on the center post of the switch should be laid down on the positive terminal. The black wire goes from the switch to the running lights. To get the flasher to work with the running lights, another diode is needed from the running light side to the flasher too.

Nailed it !!!!
Good job you even noticed the the need for the missing diode wire to run the lights.

I'm getting high tech now !! LOL
Seeing if I can speed up the assembly line a bit.
With this I can pre cut all of the wires and put all of the terminals on them before assembly.

And as you can see the next one will all be color coded ��

This is the guts of the new upgrade.
Easy to add in to my original box.
This give you all marker and tail lights On
Or you can turn on all lights and flashing turn signal lights.
Not much to it.

This flasher in the picture is not a grounded LED flasher. I have more coming tomorrow

Good luck
